Two from one

The contemporary four-bedroom house alongside Lawry Plunkett Reserve is in addition to the $15.5 million house the couple purchased at Clifton Gardens last year, and for which he lodged plans in May to demolish and rebuild it at a cost of $5 million.
Charlton, who from December takes up the job at the helm of Sydney Airport, is among those who have cashed in on the north shore trophy home market boom of recent years, smashing the Castlecrag suburb’s high when he sold his waterfront home for $23.5 million.
Two-year itch
Mining industry boss Mark Lochtenberg has returned his Whale Beach house to the market for $11 million, complete with recently approved plans by Rob Mills Architecture for a contemporary house on the 840-square-metre site.

The chairman of Equus Mining purchased it two years ago for $9.5 million when he sold his Bilgola Beach house for $14.5 million to Boost Juice founder Janine Allis.

There’s also a two-year turnaround on the Mosman house owned by David Wenkart, deputy chief at the private hospital owner Macquarie Health Corporation headed by his father Dr Tom Wenkart.
The Fairfax Road house made headlines when it last sold in 2021 for $10.52 million after then owner Harry Xiang Huang fled overseas with his former boss Michael Menghong Gu after the property giant iProsperity collapsed, leaving behind $350 million in debt. Neither have been found since.
De Brennan Property’s Jonathan De Brennan is yet to set a guide, but it is worth noting that Huang copped a loss on it from the $11.4 million he had paid for it in 2017.
Fit for Beatrix Potter
As if hospo entrepreneur Steve Bannigan hasn’t been busy enough reopening Sydney landmark Jacksons on George with his partners Paul Ford, publican Michael Broome and restaurateur Maurice Terzini, there is also the business of selling his Wahroonga home.

For those who remember fondly the sticky carpets and tawdry behaviour that made the J on G so much fun in the 1990s, you might be disappointed to know the “pub” has reopened as a far more swanky affair complete with a hatted restaurant. (Honestly Sydney, is nothing sacred?)

Amid all that excitement Bannigan’s home hit property websites this week for $9.5 million ahead of a November 18 auction by DiJones’ Lynette Malcolm, who described it as “so cute, it’s like Beatrix Potter on steroids”.
The 2200-square-metre property with billiard room, gymnasium, pool and basketball court has been renovated throughout since it last traded in 2020 for $4.8 million.
Goldeneye opportunity
Philanthropist Gina Satterthwaite, a member of one of New Zealand’s richest families, is selling her Tamarama house following her purchase of a beachfront penthouse in Double Bay earlier this year for $14 million from art collector Steve Nasteski.

The house is named “Goldeneye” in honour of the Jamaican home of novelist Ian Fleming that was the inspiration behind a redesign by architect Kelvin Ho.
