Natalie Bassingthwaighte cops big investment home hit
Singer Natalie Bassingthwaighte’s plans to rent out her very cool Byron Bay home haven’t gone according to plan.
Singer Natalie Bassingthwaighte and her estranged musician husband Cameron McGlinchy have put their former Byron Bay home up for lease.
It came with five bedrooms across two single-level buildings around a pool in 4760sq m semirural grounds at Ewingsdale.

Bassingthwaighte and McGlinchy initially sought $2850 a week, which was reduced to $2500 just before it recently came down from rental sites.
There was the option to lease it furnished or unfurnished.
PropTrack noted the Ewingsdale rental market has strength, but not the sales market. The median rental price sits at $1325 a week, up 32 per cent annually after 39 lettings, while its $2,539,500 median price is down 23 per cent from 10 sales over a year.

The couple had been co-parenting at the family compound which they bought for $2.15m in 2020, when they made the move from Melbourne.
They had sold their former 1907 home in Brighton for $4m, having paid $2,525,000 for the property in 2012 shortly after the sale of Bassingthwaighte’s Elizabeth Bay apartment for $830,000.
The couple, who wed in 2011, had been together since 2006 when they met while in the band Rogue Traders.
Bassingthwaighte last year publicly announced her relationship with her new partner, stage manager at the Queensland Theatre Company Pip Loth, who identifies as non-binary.
