A waterfront three-storey home has become Sydney’s most expensive sale so far in 2021.<\/p>\n

A million dollars will not buy you a view like this these days. 1 Wingadal Place, Point Piper (pictured) sold for $40million-plus in a secret sale this week. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The architect-designed three storey eco-mansion was on the market with a pricetag approaching $60million in 2019. Despite the lower sale price, it is still believed to be the most expensive home sold in Sydney so far in 2021<\/p>\n
The sale is believed to be the highest price paid so far this year in Sydney, with the two closest in price also sold at Point Piper for between $37million and $40million,\u00a0 realestate.com.au\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n
This latest sale sits on Wingadal Place, a street on the exclusive Point Piper peninsula with only two other houses for neighbours.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The enviable views reach from\u00a0Seven Shilling Beach and Double Bay to the Opera House and Harbour Bridge.<\/p>\n
The home also has a wide array of ultra luxury features.<\/p>\n
They range from an infinity pool made from Cait Rosso red marble, six opulent bathrooms, an automated waterfront-facing Italian window system, and a turntable outside the four-car garage.<\/p>\n
The interiors are notable for use of\u00a0reclaimed Karri wood, sandstone from Wondabyne on the NSW Central Coast and imported Italian marble.<\/p>\n
One of the most unusual features inside is a woven vaulted copper ceiling, believed to be one of a kind.<\/p>\n

The home was designed by teams of architects and features unique vaulted copper ceilings<\/p>\n

Sydney environmental lawyer Sarah Cooke, who once owned a small Bondi flat, bought the extraordinary Point Piper trophy home in 2006 for $7.95million<\/p>\n
The architects helped incorporate multiple eco features including solar hydronic heating in the bathrooms, energy-efficient design, photovoltaic cells and a grey water recycling system.<\/p>\n
Ms Cooke is believed to have purchased the home at a foreclosure auction in 2006 for $7.95million.<\/p>\n
In 2019, she said buying the home was ‘like I\u2019d won the lottery’, reflecting on the days she once owned a small flat in Bondi.\u00a0<\/p>\n
