Retired AFL Sydney Swans champion Kieran Jack has made the move west with his family. They’ve settled in Swanbourne, a western coastal suburb of Perth, where Jack and wife, TV presenter Charlotte Goodlet, have spent $2.24m on a renovated 1920s weatherboard home.

It has three bedrooms, one bathroom, a rear undercover patio, and a grassed yard on its near 600sq m block.

It had previously sold in 2001 for $492,000.

According to PropTrack, the median house price in Swanbourne is $2.33m. That’s up 3.6 per cent over the past 12 months.

Goodlet has joined Channel 7 in her hometown as its Perth weekend weather presenter, while Jack, who had been working on mergers and acquisitions at KPMG, has taken up a role as the head of strategy and innovation at the West Coast Eagles.

Jack and Goodlet, with son Alfred, had been renting a Milsons Point penthouse since they sold their former Paddington home in 2022.

Their two-bedroom Jersey Rd terrace, on a 146sq m block with a rear northerly aspect, fetched $2.7m.

It had a new kitchen with stone benchtops and Bosch appliances.

The home had been listed with a guide of $2.5m to $2.95m guidance through McGrath Paddington.

Jack, who was raised in the Cherrybrook after being born in Wollongong, was named co-captain of the Sydney Swans, alongside the 2012 premiership side’s captain Jarrad McVeigh.

He retired at the end of the 2019 after 210 AFL games following his 2007 debut, and briefly took a role as the Swans’ commercial manager.

His departure to Perth saw him give up his directorship at Moore Park Golf Club. Billed as one of the best public golf courses in Sydney, Moore Park Golf faces being cut back to being a nine-hole course, with driving range and clubhouse, after the NSW government announced last October half of the course would be seized and turned into Sydney’s “Central Park” from 2026.

What's driven record price growth since the pandemic?

Hollywood star and golf enthusiast Mark Wahlberg recently posted a video supporting its preservation.
