ASX chief Dominic Stevens buys $21 million Sydney home

Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) chief executive Dominic Stevens has forked out an enormous $21 million on a waterfront mansion in an exclusive Sydney suburb.

Mr Stevens and his wife Emma have traded up their Bellevue Hill property for an historic six-bedroom home in the same suburb.

The cashed-up couple will also have some new similarly wealthy neighbours, media heir Lachlan and Sarah Murdoch, who reside in next door’s $23 million Le Manoir estate, Domain reports.

The buyers of the luxurious bay-view home had been shrouded in mystery when it was put on the market in April. 

The property was owned by Brambles chairman and Westfield executive Stephen Johns after he bought it in early 1989 for a tidy $4.5 million – and in 28 years the mansion has been restored by an architect and skyrocketed in value.

Mr Stevens was given the ASX top job in August 2016 after his predecessor Elmer Funke Kupper resigned following corruption allegations.

He and his wife had previously owned an $8.7 million property in Bellevue Hill since 2005 before moving one street forward to their new Victoria Road residence.

Set on a 2,100sqm block, the three storey home is complete with eight living areas and boasts six bedrooms, six bathrooms and stunning waterfront views.

It has its own library, sun-room, formal dining room and rooftop terrace and was built in 1919.

The home’s other impressive features includes a glass-framed pool, flood-lit tennis court and a separate guest house. 

From 1942 to 1948 it was run as the ‘Belhaven Babies Home’, run by controversial businessman Leslie Owen Bailey, who sent many of the babies born to unwed mothers to be raised at his Hopewood House orphanage in Bowral.
