Live the $8 million lifestyle of an Aussie tennis legend

A grand slam-worthy mansion in Brighton, Victoria, has hit the market, with ties to tennis royalty.

The four-bedroom, three-bathroom French château at 25 Menzies Avenue, previously owned by Aussie doubles legend Todd Woodbridge, is on offer for up to $8.2 million.

Woodbridge, star player-turned-Nine sports broadcaster (covering this year’s Australian Open) with 16 Grand Slam doubles titles to his name, is best known for his partnership with Mark Woodforde.

Located on the edge of Brighton Beach, the grand tri-level home on offer was sold by Woodbridge to the current owner for $3.5 million in November 2009. Woodbridge purchased the property for $2.6 million in August 2004, Pricefinder records reveal.

Listed by Nick Johnstone Real Estate, the property called Chantilly is in a tree-lined street in the exclusive suburb of Brighton, a locale also home to WAG Rebecca Judd and her husband Chris, Brownlow medallist.

The mansion is eye-catching with its significant ivy-draped exterior, and the interiors are just as impressive.

French Oak floors, cast iron, Venetian plaster walls, double-height ceilings and plush drapes are just some of the decadent design features.

A curved staircase in the grand entrance hall is also a talking point, and there’s ample space to entertain with an alfresco terrace, solar-heated pool and theatre room.

The vibrant kitchen is also perfect for foodies with natural timber benchtops and custom cabinetry.

Domain’s latest data reveals the median price for a four-bedroom home in Brighton is $3.65 million. The suburb has a population of 23,254 and an average age demographic of 40 to 59 years.
