Fresh from securing the Federal Parliament seat for Wentworth, Dr Kerryn Phelps’ extensive property portfolio can now be revealed.
With long-term partner Jackie Stricker, Dr Phelps owns five properties, including four in Sydney.
The other is a stylish ‘weekender’ in Bowral, in the New South Wales Southern Highlands, and the five properties combined are worth $18million in total.
The couple’s portfolio includes two medical practices, two apartments with breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour as well as the country estate.

Recent figures suggest the couple are $8million in front after buying their initial property together in the affluent suburb Double Bay, in Sydney’s east, in 1998.
At the time the residence on Cooper St cost $1.6million – today it is worth $5.5million.
The couple’s most valuable property is a four-bedroom Potts Point unit, estimated to be worth $5.6million.
They opted to recast their portfolio in March of 2015, selling a waterside home in Bundeena for $3.3million, which was $2.4million more than they originally paid for the premises.
Phelps and Stricker went on to purchase a manor in Bowral for $2.4million and the site of a medical practice in Surry Hills for $2.55million.
The couple have also been big financial winners on the Sydney real estate market.
Property records show they nearly doubled their money on an Elizabeth Bay address, bought in 2002 for $1.8million.
