Retired St Kilda footballer and coach Grant Thomas sells in Brighton

Retired St Kilda footballer and coach Grant Thomas and his wife Kerry have sold in Brighton.

They had $9 million-plus hopes for their non-waterfront that sold for $9.1 million.

The six-bedroom, eight-bathroom abode came with a separate studio on its 1443-square- metre block.

The home also configured with a pool, spa and tennis court, was built after the block cost $2.44 million in 2001.

Its build features on the website of Loewe Projects, a prestige building company owned by another St Kilda ex-footballer, Stewart Loewe.

Kay & Burton marketed the home.

Thomas has enjoyed a media career on the AFL since his retirement in 1985. He was coach at St Kilda for five years until 2006.

The couple retain a Great Ocean Road property in Johanna.
