Bellevue Hill trophy home changes hands for $30m

Sydney's prestige property market has clocked up another trophy home sale of about $30 million for property developer Denis O'Neil's Bellevue Hill estate.

Market sources believe the buyer was fellow property developer billionaire Bob Ell, who is trading up from his Potts Point penthouse, which he sold to liquor industry heavyweight John Piven-Large for more than $15 million.
At $30 million, this is the most expensive non-waterfront sale this year and sets a new record for the prestigious suburb.^[2]

"A very choice position on the crown of the hill, with delightful views over the harbour.

Immediately adjoins the well-known homes of Sir William Vicars and Sir Charles Clubbe."

Addenbrooke, Bellevue Hill sold before spring marketing

By Jonathan Chancellor Wednesday, 14 August 2013

Addenbrooke, the stately Bellevue Hill trophy home, hasn't hung around for its formal spring trophy home marketing campaign.
It's attracted the attention of competitive interest.

Overnight print speculation has it that the property developer Bob Ell may have secured the offering which was listed through Sydney Sotheby's International Realty agent Michael Pallier.
Property Observer previously suggested it came with $33 million hopes by the downsizing vendors, Denis and Charlotte O'Neil.
Addenbrooke last traded at its 1988 auction for $5.375 million having been the home of the late Sir Lionel Coppleson, the former hire purchase Custom Credit co-founding chairman, for close to five decades. He and his surgeon brother, Sir Victor, who was an author of a 1933 book on Australian shark attacks, had grown up in Wee Waa on the Namoi River in northern NSW. Sir Lionel was knighted in 1969.
An earlier auction was in 1930 when it was noted Addenbrooke adjoined the homes of Sir William Vicars and surgeon Sir Charles Clubbe.

"Addenbrooke was listed on the quiet recently with hopes of $33 million through agent Michael Pallier, of Sotheby's International Realty. Pallier won't comment on the sale, but other sources tip the price at closer to $30 million.^[7]
Property Observer gathers it's set to come with $33 million hopes by the downsizing vendors, Denis and Charlotte O'Neil.

Addenbrooke vendors, O'Neil and his wife, Charlotte, bought the 2120 sq m property on Cranbrook Road in 1988 for $5,375,000 from former Custom Credit chairman Sir Lionel Coppleson.
The couple then added the adjoining 850 sq m block in 1994 for $1.25 million, when they bought it from the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea. That block remains for sale through Pallier for about $5 million.
The downsizing O'Neils also sold their Palm Beach weekender for $7.5 million in late June
"Settlement will confirm if this is the third highest sale in what is already a strong year for trophy homes:

Arguably one of Bellevue Hills finest family homes
