Scott and Alex Pendlebury say ‘bittersweet’ goodbye to stylish Elwood house with the help of high end real estate agency in Melbourne

Scott and Alex Pendlebury say selling their Elwood family home is “bittersweet” but exciting.

Property Confidential understands their Adam Kane Architects-designed ‘Bayside House’ sold for an undisclosed sum in the vicinity of $6.5m after being listed with a $5.75m-$6.1m guide.

Both Pendleburys stated they were sad to be leaving the four-bedroom house they built three years ago and have lived in with children Darcy and Jax in individual Instagram posts.

“We are proud of this one and will miss the ‘hood, but v (ery) excited for the next chapter,” their posts read

Bayside House’s impressive features include a magnesium swimming pool and spa, sheltered courtyard, turf-surfaced mini basketball court, a sauna room and wine cellar and self-contained bedroom and gym above the garage.

Alex previously told Property Confidential their plan for the home “was always to do everything we possibly could to make it the best home we possibly could”.

“Scott and I love being outside and one thing we wanted to do was make sure the outdoor space was very usable,” she said,

“And adding the dream court and the spa to the pool area enabled us to be outside much more with the kids, which was one four favourite things about the house.”

The home was designed by Adam Kane Architects.

Scott Pendlebury is hoping for a second premiership in 2022 as his Pies sit comfortably in second on the ladder after an incredible 11-game winning streak.

The Collingwood captain, who won the Norm Smith Medal when they last won the flag in 2010, has played the most games ever for the club as of Round 18.

Elwood’s $9.4m house price record was set by 31 Ormond Esplanade in 2021, while four others houses in the suburb have sold for $6.6m or higher.
