Former PM Jacinda Ardern Snaps up $5.3m Home in Sydney
The purchase ends months of speculation and marks the suburb’s biggest sale this year, according to people familiar with the transaction.
- Former New Zealand Prime Minister Dame Jacinda Ardern and her husband, television presenter Clarke Gayford, have purchased a $5.3 million home in Dee Why, marking the biggest property sale the Sydney suburb has recorded this year.
- The acquisition concludes months of high-profile house hunting across Sydney's northern beaches for the couple. Ardern previously stated the family would be basing themselves out of Australia "for the moment" while continuing their work.
- This purchase follows the sale of the couple's central Auckland bungalow in July, which they originally bought for $1.74m in 2018. That property carried a $2.3m rating valuation at the time of its sale.
- Agent Barnaby Devaux of Raine & Horne Northern Beaches secured the transaction after the couple was spotted dining at a local Mexican restaurant in Dee Why. The pair has received a "warm welcome" since arriving in Australia.
- While Ardern has noted that New Zealand remains the best country in the world, she has expressed fondness for the Australian lifestyle and beach. The family now settles into their new coastal community with continued ties to their homeland.
