An amazing Melbourne mansion owned by businessman Andrew Cox has hit the market with an eye-watering price guide of $13.5million-$14.3million.

This is the third time in three years the billionaire has tried to offload the glorious 132-year-old Italianate-style Brighton home.

Well known in the sporting world as the former owner of the Melbourne Rebels Super Rugby Club, Cox, 55, first put his gorgeous seven-bedroom, six-bathroom pad up for sale in April 2021.

Last changing hands in 2006 for $5.71m, Cox had high hopes for a big price after another mansion nearby sold for over $10m in February, 2021. 

But it appears that the $18m-$19million price tag for the lavish sprawl proved too rich for buyers.

Cox tried to sell off the luxury spread again in March 2022 with a revised price guide of  $13.7-$15million, but could not score a sale reports the Herald Sun.

The grand estate, called Narellan, is situated in one of Melbourne’s most affluent suburbs and occupies a 1345-square metre block.

Set in large sculptured grounds, it features a pool, gardens and a magnificent high tower that provides 360-degree views of the bay and the city. 

Cox and wife Sarah have styled the home in a combination of modern updates and old-world charm.

One wing of the house is reserved for guest rooms and has its own professional butler’s kitchen.
