John Fish's Sovereign Islands sale

Receivers selling property developer John Fish's Sovereign Islands mansion continue to market the property after dropping the initial price of $15 million.

The opulent house features seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, multiple entertainment areas, a sprawling terrace, a 25-metre pool, gym, steam room, and panoramic views from Surfers Paradise to South Stradbroke Island.

Mr Fish and his partner, 2000 Sydney Olympic gold medallist and former Hockeyroos captain Nikki Hudson, were living in the Sir Lancelot Close home until two months ago. Fish reportedly paid $6.5 million for the property in October 2003 and then went on to spend millions extending and renovating the home.

Sydney’s eastern suburbs are no strangers to exorbitant property prices, but occasionally, even the super rich raise an eyebrow to the sporadic spray of price tags in the tens of millions. This $45 million waterfront Penthouse in Point Piper is no exception.

The 1000 square metre residence was designed by Gergely and Pinter Architects and focuses on effortless entertaining on a grand scale, and optimizes the harbour view that spreads 180 degrees before it.

Exclusively positioned adjacent to Duff Reserve, the two level Penthouse includes six bedrooms, six bathrooms, a grand marble entry foyer, formal and informal living spaces, 20-seater dining room with wet bar, custom-designed commercial gas kitchen, wine cellar, triple parking with internal access, and elevator access to all levels.

Outside includes a self-contained apartment, a large boatshed, idyllic level gardens at the water's edge, a deepwater pontoon and a heated pool.
