19 Kent RD, Rose Bay sold for $ 45.1 million. There had been interest in the range of $ 30 million- $ 35 million shortly after it was mentioned.
A Grand Rose Bay Estate sold this afternoon for an incredible $ 45.1 million at a private auction.
Appropriate because of the raised position overlooking the Royal Sydney Golf Course, the hill on 19 has RD-a deceased estate-a rare trophy house with six bedrooms and would always be popular.
But the sale of agents Michael Dunn and James Dunn from Richardson & Wrench Double Bay had few comparisons and struggled to find a suitable guide on time for the Wentworth Courier House of the Week function last month, although they quoted early interest in $ 30 million reach.

The house with six bedrooms has been in the same family for 60 years.
It was close to the golf course, with speculation (unconfirmed) they may have been a member.
Dunn was ecstatic with the result. “I think it can be a record for a home that is sold at an auction,” he said.
“The sellers are very happy with the result, but it was a lively auction and such good qualities such as these always attract good interest.”
He says he could not reveal the identity of the buyer or details, except that they were a local family.
Auctioner Jessie Davidson had nine bidders, four of them active.
Bidding was opened for $ 29 million and quickly rose in $ 1 million steps.
Other sources who invoked that it was the underbidder, a lady who was wearing red glasses who had opened the bid.
The individual sources said that Davidson called it on the market for $ 40 million, and the Underbidder thought she had $ 45 million.
But those sources said that another couple, a man and woman in the fifty, stable the keys with another $ 100,000 offer.
They speculated that they must have been a member of the nearby Royal Sydney Golf Club and wanted to live close by. Dunn could not confirm this.
For her house of the week, Kirsten Craze wrote that the sellers were the Burns family, descendants of Sir James Burns who founded Blue Chip Merchant Company Burns Philp.
There are a view of the Royal Sydney Golf Club from the house.
The buyers will undoubtedly renovate.
The house has large rooms with high ceilings.
They had called the Grand Kent RD -Oonroend Goed at home for 60 years; One of the few owners in almost a century.
The estate measured 2536SQ M, larger than almost all other non-water-off-language properties in the coveted suburb.
Kent RD’s house was designed by Scott, Green & Scott in 1935 for WA Freeman in Georgian Revival Style, reminiscent of a stately country house in the Groot -Britain countryside.
Dunn even speculated who might have been interested in the function of Craze: “It would be perfect for a golf enthusiast because you look down on the recently renovated Royal Sydney Golf Club.
“The prospects are picturesque.”
De Knoll is high over the famous Fairways next door and has spacious lawns, established gardens and a swimming pool of 15.2 million.
