Ed Sheeran linked to mansion in Mt Macedon

He’s one of the biggest music stars on the planet, and now British chart topper Ed Sheeran may be making a move to country Victoria after he was linked to the sale of a prestigious mansion in a popular tourist town.

Ed Sheeran has been linked to another prestige property in Mt Macedon.

Locals in the area suggest the British chart-topping musician has bought the property owned by Deutsche Bank Australia chairman Clive Smith.

The property, which sold for $3 million in 2007, is close to the Mt Macedon Hotel.

Last year Sheeran’s name was also linked to a different Macedon property, the $9 million Cameron Lodge, however nothing came of those rumours.

Sheeran has been busy increasing his reported $100 million real estate portfolio in the past two years, after amassing $300 million from his music career.

The 28 year old has spent time in Mt Macedon, staying at the home of his friend and Australian promoter Michael Gudinski.

Sheeran also performed on the area’s key tourist landmark, Hanging Rock, as part of a radio show in 2017.

During his six months off music in 2016, Sheeran went walkabout in the area while staying with Gudinski.

“I legitimately got lost at Hanging Rock,” Sheeran told the Herald Sun at the time. “I was wandering around, like it was Picnic at Hanging Rock.”

Sheeran’s name was also linked to a different Macedon property, the $9 million Cameron Lodge, however nothing came of those rumours.

The musician has purchased a string of adjoining properties in his home town Suffolk which have been dubbed Sheeranville.
