Title TattleDecember 7, 2020

The little used, dress circle Whale Beach weekender of businessman David Gonski has been listed for sale.

LJ Hooker Palm Beach listing agent David Edwards says it has some of the finest oceanfront views on the peninsula.

He has a $5.5 million to $5.9 million guide for the cliff-top Rayner Road home.

It last traded for $5.1 million in 2009 when bought from former Whale Beach surf lifesaving club president and Mallesons partner Tony Bancroft.

David Gonski has been a rare visitor, while retaining a retreat on the Gold Coast.

The home features open plan living zones which are connected to private outdoor decks.

There are three bedrooms, which each have water views, as well as a temperature controlled wine cellar.

The designer kitchen adjoins a sandstone terrace with built-in barbecue that overlooks the nine metre swimming pool.

It sits on 710 square metres of native landscaped gardens.

The home was bought in a company name directed by wife, Boston-born dermatologist Orli Wargon, and son Michael, a partner at law firm Herbert Smith Freehills.
