Staff reporterDecember 7, 2020
Brighton’s Blair Athol has been sold.
Set on about 3400 square metres, with pool, tennis court and bay views, it’s a property steeped in history.
No price has been revealed yet on the latest deal secured by the Beamish car dealership family, who paid $7.52 million in 2013, but the vendors of the Gothic-style mansion had prices hopes of $13 million.
Its previous owners include Craig Kimberley of Just Jeans fame who sold it to Tabcorp CEO Ross Wilson in 1994 for $2.95 million, soon after relocating to Melbourne from Adelaide.
Its modern kitchen, with Aga stove, was designed by Sue Carr. Blair Athol once featured in Architectural Digest.
