Known as the Lake House, The Daily Telegraph reported that the four-bedroom, three-bathroom property’s price has been slightly lowered to between $1.5 million and $1.6 million.

Situated in Polkolbin, the listing reveals that it’s positioned on the 15th fairway of The Vintage Golf Club, with open water views.

The listing said it was designed for weekends that are “social, easy, and a little bit indulgent”.

“The house centres around one main idea: everyone together, without trying too hard. The living space is open, light-filled, and connected — high ceilings, a fireplace for winter, and a natural flow straight out to the terrace,” it continued.

“It’s the kind of layout where a few friends turn into ten, and no one feels in the way. It’s fun, it’s unpretentious, and it’s all done for you.”

It last traded hands for $1.520m in October 2023.

At the time of publication, the home is also listed on Airbnb. If you want to book it, your reservation must be for a minimum of two nights, which costs $1,605.47.

The Vintage is listed as its host and says it has been hosting guests for 11 years.

The news follows the sale of the expert’s grand Willoughby sandstone home with his wife, Kelly Swanson-Roe, last month.

According to Mosman Daily, it was sold “slightly above” the $5.7 million asking price.

Webb & Gleeson Buyers Agency’s founder and director, Billy Gleeson, confirmed the news to the publication and said it had been on the market for more than a month.

“The buyers fell in love with the character and the history, there’s no other house like it in Willoughby or the North Shore,” he said.
