CELEBRITY chef Pete Evans has listed his Malabar mansion for sale.

The controversial former My Kitchen Rules judge and paleo diet advocate has a price guide of $3.2 million for the five bedroom, three bathroom and four parking space home on Austral Street.

“Sleek sophistication meets barefoot coastal living at this glamorous two year old residence, offering a private family sanctuary on a sun-drenched corner block,” the property listing reads.

“Intuitively crafted for openness, flow and sustainability, this sprawling double storey design features distinct family, social and relaxation zones, with a bespoke chef designed kitchen at its heart.

“From the lap pool, to the four-person spa, to the open air gym, the home embraces outdoor living at every chance. In a laid-back coastal community, it sits just steps from the lapping shores of Malabar Beach, the rolling greens of Randwick Golf Course, cafes and schools.”

Evans and model-turned-nutritionist wife Nicola Robinson have engaged NG Farah agents Peter Goulding and Theo Karangis to sell the house with the couple now based in Byron Bay, where they own an acreage in the hinterland.

He is opening a healing clinic in Byron Bay’s new commercial precinct, The Habitat.

The 588sq m property also comes with a skateboard ramp, trampoline and indoor and outdoor gyms.

There is also a butler’s pantry, a wellness studio with infra-red sauna and tea room. A double garage boasts Tesla solar panels and power wall.

Earlier this year, Evans and Robinson sold a second of his Malabar properties – 97-99 Austral Street – off market for $2.76 million.

Evans, 47, meanwhile has long been outspoken on various health issues and has raised eyebrows by showing support to anti-vaxxers. Recently he has been widely criticised for his bizarre beliefs on COVID-19.

He has been vocal against the use of face masks and in April was fined more than $25,000 by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) over claiming a ‘Bio Charger’ device had magical coronavirus eradication properties.

Last week, he took aim at fellow celebrities, claiming they are too scared to speak up on coronavirus.

He also bizarrely accused media and sceptics of turning people against the sun after previously claiming sunscreen was full of poisonous chemicals.

“Sure, I can go back to sharing recipes every day and you won’t hear another peep from me, it would be a lot easier,” Evans told his 1.5 million Facebook followers on a live video stream.

“I could be like every other celebrity out there. You know I get sent things from other famous people that think the same and they send it to me for me to share and I look at their pages and it is same old like we are still living in 2019.

“Why don’t you stand up and share it? It is a simple f**king question. I am not here to be that guy. I am happy to do it and I’ve shared it before on this page. The amount of people that I’ve read comments from is that you are too scared to share things.”
