Lush greenery, a short walk to the beach, and outdoor dining: Sam Neill sells his Federation home in Sydney’s Double Bay for more than $ 3.6 million through a VIRTUAL auction

Jurassic Park star Sam Neill sold his four-bedroom home in Double Bay.

The Pearce Street property was believed to be selling for more than $ 3.6 million through a virtual auction service called Openn Negotiation, the first in the eastern suburbs of Sydney.

The impressive 72-year-old double-fronted Federation House features an open-plan living and dining area leading to an outdoor terrace, and is just steps from Double Bay Beach.

The two-story property features a spacious back garden and an open-air dining room, which follows open-plan living.

Floor-to-ceiling windows in each room offer a view of the lush greenery outside, with the master bedroom opening to a large balcony.

White-toned interiors provide a modern beach bungalow feel, as the wood floor offers a rustic feel.

Integrated floor-to-ceiling shelving throughout the living room offers a variety of storage and display options, and white walls provide a blank canvas for every taste.

The kitchen and dining room feature double glass doors that open to the garden, with ample bench space and more than enough room for a complete dining set.

The trees established in the front and rear garden offer shade and privacy.

When it’s too cold for the nearby beach or numerous shopping options in the area, owners can curl up in front of the fireplace.

Ballard Property Double Bay revealed that there were six bidders waiting to acquire the two-story property, but it was eventually taken over by an Australian who currently lives in Hong Kong.

The New Zealand-raised actor bought the property in 1996 for $ 839,000 with his ex-wife Noriko Watanabe.

Now he divides his time between his New Zealand vineyard, Canberra and Sydney with his fellow journalist Laura Tingle, 59.
