A $62.75 million mansion in Vaucluse, Sydney has taken the crown as Australia’s most expensive home for 2022.
CoreLogic’s 2022 Best of the Best report revealed the most expensive houses sold this year, with Sydney properties dominating the list.
Topping the sales was the trophy home at 38A Wentworth Road in Vaucluse, which sold for $62.75 million in February after three years on the market.
The mansion, known as ‘Ganeden’ includes seven bedrooms, three kitchens, two internal lifts, 10 bathrooms and a 20-car garage. Other features include a home cinema, gym and two swimming pools.
While the hillside property is not on the waterfront, it does offer views of Sydney Harbour, the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House.
The property is next door to James and Erica Packer’s former ‘La Mer’ home, which sold for about $70 million in 2015.
It was listed by lawyer John Landerer – the founder of commercial law firm Landerer & Company – and wife Michelle.
