Jamie Durie reveals major $30 million offer

Landscaper turned TV personality Jamie Durie has revealed why he may not accept a staggering big cash offer.

Jamie Durie has revealed he’s been presented a staggering $30 million offer for his luxurious waterfront home.

The Australian landscaper turned TV personality finally moved into his sustainable Avalon compound on Sydney’s Northern Beaches in November after a decade of planning and construction.

Development on the ambitious property was filmed for Durie’s Seven series Growing Home With Jamie Durie, which showed how he transformed a 1960s cottage into a six-bedroom, multi-level retreat fit with a pool, gym, media room and sweeping water views.

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, Durie, 55, confessed he’d received an offer of more than $30 million, despite the fact he’s not advertising the pad for sale.

Durie, who lives at the property with his partner Ameka Jane and their two young children, bought the 1010 sqm block for $2.275 million in 2015.

“We’ve spent 10 years planning and building our family home and we love it,” Durie told the publication.

“We received an unexpected offer in the mid $30 million and are now warming to the idea of spending some time on our hobby farm with the kids while they are young.

“We have not listed or advertised the home but have asked McGrath to manage any off-market offers moving forward and we remain open minded either way, as we love living here.”

The Seven presenter took to Instagram with an album of pictures showcasing the jaw-dropping property for the first time in March.

“Grateful. 10 years of planning, 2 years of construction and we’re finally back home,” Durie captioned the post.

He previously said it had been a “lifelong dream” to build an off-the-grid house.

“Ten years ago I sketched the house. We lodged the plans five years ago and then the last two years has been construction,” he told Woman’s Day in November.

“I don’t think poor Ameka had any idea what she was signing up for when we met. But she came up with a number of ideas that added a lot of value to it.”

Durie’s celebrity friends flooded the comments section on his post with praise for the stunning finished product.

“Mate!!! Just wow,” gushed The Morning Show host Larry Emdur.

TV personality Sally Obermeder wrote “WOW” and I’m A Celeb host Julia Morris added: “Spectacular.”

Comedian Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes told him: “That’s proper wow. My god”, while Getaway host Catriona Rowntree said it was “bloomin’ gorgeous”.
