High-profile journalists Peter Overton and Jessica Rowe are upgrading their real estate, listing their Vaucluse house for $7 million-plus to trade up to a larger, five-bedroom family home in the same suburb.
“It’s time for a change for that next stage of our family life,” said Overton, the chief newsreader for Sydney’s 6pm edition of Nine News (Nine is the majority owner of Domain). “We’ve been looking to buy for a couple of years.”
The couple bought their two-storey home with four bedrooms, formal and informal living areas and a swimming pool on almost 700 square metres of land 12 years ago for $3.37 million, and undertook a major renovation a few years later with what Overton describes as “episodic renovations” since.
“We’ve loved living here for the past 12 years where our girls [Allegra, 14, and Giselle, 12] have grown up,” Rowe said.
When they bought the house the pair were upgrading from their matrimonial home in Rose Bay, bought in 2003 for $2.315 million when Overton was at 60 Minutes and Rowe was presenting Ten News at Five with Ron Wilson.
James Keenan and Elliott Placks, of Ray White Double Bay, who have bought and sold on behalf of the couple for years, are set to launch the sales campaign in the coming days.
