Just 11 days to sell Karl Stefanovic's Lindfield home

Just 11 days to sell Karl Stefanovic's Lindfield home
Title TattleDecember 7, 2020

It only hit the market 11 days ago, selling far quicker than the 26 day Sydney private treaty sale time. 

Channel 9 breakfast television presenter Karl Stefanovic and his estranged wife Cassandra Thorburn have quickly sold their matrimonial Lindfield home.

Interested parties will have known the listing was coming a little earlier after reports drones were spotting hovering over the quaint garden cottage in late October.

The upper North Shore family home came with no formal price guidance through John Tower at Tower & London.

Locals suggested the home could fetch between $3.6 million to $3.8 million, which is likely where it sold. The Lindfield median house price currently at its peak at $2.5 million.

The marketing photos offered the chance to see their home renovations since they snapped up the home for $2.3 million six years ago.

There was an all-white makeover throughout the now more cosmopolitian 1915 cottage which retained a few traditional features under the slate roofed house including the marble fireplaces, pressed metal ceilings and lead light windows.

The air-conditioned garage space, home of Karl's black scooter, comes complete with two bar tables, wine fridge and storage. There's yellow and white striped beanbags to watch the television.

It's been a house of melody with a music room devoted to the piano along with a room upstairs featuring fours guitars.

Outside is a pool, enclosed trampoline and a basketball post. 

The Lindfield listing came after the family had committed several months ago to trading up big time to an $8 million home in Cremorne.

The three level harbourfront home, currently being developed by Tony Blanche, was purchased before the separation.
