$80m Boomerang bumps off top trophy as 2023’s most expensive home
Kerry Packer once broke a chair there and Paul Keating was among guests at one of Australia’s most glamorous and colourful trophy homes, which sold in a secret pre-Christmas deal.
Lying behind golden stucco walls and black wrought-iron gates, Elizabeth Bay mansion Boomerang has always possessed an air of mystery, so it’s only fitting its sale is shrouded in rumour and speculation.
Now, AFR Weekend can confirm the storied mansion owned by the Fox family, whose patriarch is trucking magnate and Rich Lister Lindsay Fox, sold before Christmas for about $80 million.
