Owner and director of GJK Facility Services, George Stamas, and his wife Jaqui Maree, have been revealed as the mystery buyers of Australia’s priciest one-bedroom apartment, purchasing the ocean-view unit overlooking Bondi Beach for an impressive $11 million.
The couple made their decision swiftly after spotting the “for sale” sign while having lunch at the renowned Icebergs restaurant, located just across the road on Notts Avenue.
Selling agents Alexander Phillips and Vince Licata from PPD noted that the Melbourne-based buyers acted quickly to secure the luxury apartment.
“The buyers spotted the apartment when they were at Icebergs for lunch,” Mr Phillips told Financial Review. “We showed them the apartment the next day, and that was it.”
The designer unit with panoramic views of Bondi Beach was first listed for $14.5 million auction guide through another agency in January, but the price was reduced and the speedy deal negotiated by PPD on behalf of vendor Darrell Grundy.
