Castle Cove trophy home Neerim Park sold

The wife of one of accountant Professor Richard Petty, Tatyana Klauzner has bought a Castle Cove trophy estate on the lower north shore for more than $13 million.

The one-hectare waterfront estate has topped the prior suburb record of $11.28 million a year earlier for the adjoining estate.

Neerim Park sold in April through Christie’s International’s Martin Ross and Darren Curtis was designed by architect Michael Robilliard. 

It is one of the largest privately held holdings on the lower north shore.

It was the late investment banker David Coe who commissioned the landmark residence in 1998-99.

It was sold to the Woodward family in 1999 for $5,378,000, setting a then suburb record.

Both Klauzner and Petty are Hong Kong based.

She is Asia’s head of corporate communications at Legg Mason Global Asset Management.
