Ivanhoe, Adelaide's $7 million trophy home sale

Selling for more than $7 million, the Adelaide trophy home, Ivanhoe has set a South Australia record.

The property at 9 Edwin Terace, Gilberton sold off-market through Bernard H Booth agent Jamie Brown.

The previous record was held by historic Glenelg mansion Stormont, which sold for $6.5 million in 2010, also by Jamie Brown.

The 1889-built freestone six bedroom mansion offers almost 740sqm of living space across its 13 rooms.

It was set on a 4346sqm with tennis court and a pool.

It was built in 1889 by George Brookman, who named it Ivanhoe after his successful Kalgoorlie mine of the same name.

The property last sold in 2011 for $6.2 million to businessman Mark Britten-Jones.
