The tropical home on 12,180sqm in Balgownie already has buyers hooked, with it the most viewed property in NSW on realestate.com.au this past week.
Villa Carla was the most viewed property listing in NSW on realestate.com.au this past week.
With close to 10,000 page views on its listing, it was also the fourth most popular home in Australia.
Of those that have inquired with Ray White — Helensburgh’s Mattias Samuelsson, interest was the strongest among expats, Sydneysiders after a weekender and locals who want the best of the best.
“We’ve never had so much Sydney interest in Wollongong property than what we are seeing at the moment,” he said.
“There are so many buyers looking because they see it offers greater value for money.”
There are three cascading swimming pools.
The Ferrari themed garage has polished floors.
Mr Samuelsson is yet to confirm a price guide yet, but said 65 Wellington Dr would sell for significantly above the current Balgownie sales record. CoreLogic reveals that benchmark is $2.8 million, which was set by 56-58 Wellington Dr last year.
The Ray White agent said Villa Carla was unlike any other property he had come across in the Wollongong region before.
“I’ve sold some spectacular homes that have got records before, but this property blows everything out of the water,” he said.
The main ensuite has a spa, double shower and plenty of bling.
The home bar is equally impressive.
“What the owner spent to renovate this house is more than most houses I have sold.”
At the end of the palm tree lined driveway is the two-storey mansion that feels more like a five star resort than home. Inside is a grand foyer, a main bedroom with a dressing room and a massive ensuite, as well as a number of other bedrooms.
The lower level has a home cinema, three outdoor areas, a designer kitchen featuring a chandelier, an opulent home bar with wooden ceilings, plus a sauna and spa.
Chip on champagne at your very own swim up bar.
The new owner even has a tennis court.
Finishes include gold plated tapware, pressed metal ceilings, marble floors and a dozen or so chandeliers.
There is also a triple car garage with polished floors, a Ferrari mural featuring Michael Schumacher, plus plenty space to park the owner’s Maserati and Ferrari.
Outside there are three cascading pools including one with a swim up bar, as well as a fully equipped alfresco kitchen, tennis court, manicured lawns and sweeping district views of the Pacific Ocean.
