Bevan Slattery sells Fig Tree Pocket riverfront

The Brisbane technology entrepreneur richlister Bevan Slattery has sold his redundant Fig Tree Pocket home for $6 million through Jason Adcock of Adcock Prestige.

The Aminga Street property came with a 67 metre frontage to the Brisbane River.

The classic Hamptons style riverfront home was bought by Bevan and Jodie Slattery in 2010 but has sat empty while the Slattery’s drew up plans to build their dream home.

It was bought from Dean and Amanda Wanless six years ago.

Sold five times in the past two decades, the house was previously owned by medico turned politician Dr Bruce Flegg.

With interiors sourced from Noble House on the Gold Coast, the house has had a four month makeover.

Slattery, who sits on the board of Swimming Australia, retains a home a few streets away. Adcock advised the listing was hotly contested with two buyers, both already on the river but keen to upgrade.
