Mercedez-Benz boss sells designer Port Melbourne renovation
Title TattleMay 21, 2018

Mercedes-Benz Australia-Pacific boss Horst von Sanden and wife Angelika have scored a pre-auction buyer for their Port Melbourne home.

They were asking $2.1 million to $2.3 million through Marshall White for the block-fronted Victorian which had a designer renovation three years ago.

The couple paid $1,085,000 in 2012.

They only kept the facade of the 1900s home and rebuilt the rest.

It now comprises three bedrooms, two batrhooms, a study and a Finish sauna. A bluestone paved landscaped courtyard opens from the living area.

Von Sanden has been working at Mercedes-Benz for three decades. He began with the company in Australia in 2000.

Horst, who goes to Germany six to seven times a year, wants something a bit more lock-up-and-leave.
