The $25m home of late fashion icon Carla Zampatti remains up in the air, ahead of the forthcoming first anniversary of her death.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no sign that the former Woollahra home of the fashion designer Carla Zampatti is set for listing anytime soon, a year after the forthcoming first anniversary of her death.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The title of the four-bedroom 1928 Italianate-style abode \u00adremains in her name.<\/p>\n

The house was bought in 1975 for $220,000 from the family of the textile industry director, Laurence Foster who had built it. Zampatti bought out husband politician, lawyer and diplomat John Spender\u2019s third stake in 1982 at $233,000.<\/p>\n

The family lived there until 1986 when they moved into Spender\u2019s \u00adnearby inherited Georgian-style family home, Headingley House which Spender\u2019s diplomat father, Sir Percy Spender, had bought from the Kater pastoralist family in 1949.<\/p>\n

When the couple split, Zampatti moved back into the Edgecliff Rd battle-axe property and in 2009 updated its kitchen under the guidance of architect, Dino Raccanello. The interiors are otherwise 16th-century Italian Palladio in style, the venue of many fashion launches. Her love of design came from Italy.<\/p>\n

It appears her daughters, the Darling Point-based Allegra and Bianca, who resides at Bronte, along with their Darling Point-based stepbrother Alexander Schuman, have yet to agree on the \u00adlisting.<\/p>\n

And, of course, with Australian Fashion Week, and then the federal election looming, there\u2019s \u00adunlikely to be any rush to make any decision.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a chance it could be become the home for Allegra, the independent candidate for the seat of Wentworth.<\/p>\n

Estate agent Georgia Cleary is understood to be advising the family on the future of the home with a $25 million estimated value, amid the Zampatti commercial property empire.<\/p>\n

Interestingly there was a 2017 application to make the home into a strata duplex, which has yet to be pursued through NSW Land Registry Services.<\/p>\n
