Reminiscent of a grand historic estate, Glencairn in Kurraba Point is a modern take on traditional estate living.
Rebuilt in 2010, the contemporary trophy home sits on a vast 2561sq m across two titles incorporating a full tennis court, pool and established gardens by renowned landscape designers Peter Fudge and Annie Wilkes.
Just listed with Richard Simeon of Simeon Partners and Monika Tu of Black Diamondz, the stately residence at 27 Harriette St is owned by investor Sandy Jan and foreign exchange dealer Tony Collick.

With five bedrooms, five-bathrooms and space for seven cars, there’s a $25m price guide in an expressions of interest campaign closing at 5pm on December 3.
Last exchanged in 2016, Simeon was behind the sale that was inked for $16.5m.
At the time, the deal set a suburb high when sold by HSBC Bank Australia chairman Grant King and his wife Jenny.
“Although the owners haven’t made many changes, the home was rebuilt to incorporate the highest standard of modern-day design with soaring ceilings, classic staircases and marble bathrooms,” Simeon says.
“There’s all the grandeur of yesteryear, but with today’s sophisticated Hamptons and Georgian themes.
