Mount Eliza's Palladian palace, Palazzina, has been sold for $4.5 million.
It was listed in late 2013, and sold earlier this year to Chinese buyers.
The landmark 8 Royston Court was last sold $3.75 million in 2007 by the German businessman Joachim Mueller to former cosmetics company boss Rudi Miklosvary and his wife, Ilona.
The design of the 2001-built property at 8 Royston Court was inspired by the Palladian style of architecture of 17th century Italy.
Set on 0.8 hectares of landscaped gardens, Palazzina has 12 main rooms including a library, study and conference or sports room.
There is also a wine cellar and a Protech golf green with a range of special tees.
The block cost $556,000 in 1998.
