“Paddington Property Returns to Market with $14m Price Guide After Sale Falls Through”

The much-anticipated return of Brompton House at 238-240 Glenmore Rd in Paddington is making waves in the real estate market after its record-breaking $14m sale last year fell through.

Jacqueline Bailey and her daughter Lilly Van Lent poured their “heart and soul” into the renovation of the property, which features globally sourced fittings, European-inspired luxury interiors, and stunning city skyline views. The master bedroom, complete with a $20,000 Murano glass chandelier, takes inspiration from the Palace of Versailles.

The Victorian terraces, originally built for twin sisters in 1880, boast a rare 16m frontage and a private courtyard that can accommodate up to five cars. With five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and 600sqm of living space spread over four levels, Brompton House offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern luxury.

The property is set to return to the market with a $14m price guide, matching the previously agreed upon sale price. If achieved, this would still be the highest price ever paid for a house in the suburb of Paddington.

Local sources suggest that the reimagined residences will be listed next week with Maclay Longhurst, the same agent who brokered the initial sale. The excitement is palpable as buyers eagerly anticipate the opportunity to own a piece of Paddington history and luxury living at Brompton House.
