The first thing the couple did was seek demolition approval and they have now lodged a new two storey Coral Homes-designed home application to Lake Macquarie City Council, for 360 sqm internal space, with $621,000 build costs.
Klemmer sold his Kerrigan Close, Eleebana home, just one suburb over, for $1.7 million, having paid $1,025,000 in 2017 for the modern four bedroom house.

His first home at Oran Park was sold in May last year for $1.25 million.
It became a rental in 2019 at $780 a week after Klemmer joined the Knights in 2019 from the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.
The five bedroom Oran Park house that sat on a 927 sqm block had been built in 2015 two years after the couple paid $305,500.
Former NSW State of Origin star Klemmer who has signed on for next season will rejoin the side onfield next week after the clash between the prop and a club trainer.

The Daily Telegraph reported he copped a suspended fine and effectively a one game ban after erring in not coming from the field before abusing the trainer two Sundays ago.
The incident has led to some commentators questioning Klemmer’s future in Newcastle after a rumoured move to Parramatta, before the season’s transfer deadline of August, fell over.
