Roosters star's massive money move
Sydney Roosters star Nat Butcher and his model wife Harmony have listed their recently completed redundant duplex in Matraville.
The Butchers had the burgeoning home builder Future Flip create the luxury duplex after they paid $2.71m for a now-demolished two-level home on its 770 sqm block.
It has great street appeal.
Future Flip, ran by developer Neil Hipwell which is making a name for itself from Byron to the South Coast for its modern homebuilds, built two side-by-side homes, each with five bedrooms, a kitchen with Caeserstone benchtops, and a living room with a modern gas fireplace in a feature wall. The living space opens to a rear lawn and an in-ground pool.
The Butchers, with their one-year-old son Beau, intend to live in one of the homes.
McGrath Coogee agent Marnie Seinor says it is the ultimate forever home for modern family living.
Seinor is awaiting market feedback on price, but has scheduled a July 19 auction.
Friends and family of the Butchers had previously used Future Flip.
'The build took just 10 months,' Harmony told The Daily Telegraph
'We'd seen the high standard of Future Flip homes,' Harmony said.
'Quality is important to us; we didn't want to compromise on the build or finishes.
'We had control over the finishes and layout and took on board the architect's great ideas. They brought our vision to life.'
She especially loves its high ceilings, the open fireplace and the sunken lounge.
Nat Butcher, who was recently ruled out for the next six weeks after suffering a recurrence of an MCL strain in training, said the home will suit a family.
'It's a big home with a big backyard and great for entertaining...... it's also only five minutes to the beach.'
Harmony, a model represented by Chic Management, has been documenting the building journey to her 91,000 Instagram followers.
'The most exciting part of this build has been turning four walls into a space we call home,' Harmony wrote last month amid pictures of their recent furniture purchase with James Lane.
The couple collaborated with Joshua Hill on the photography.
Matraville has been a popular pocket for new-build duplexes by footballers. South Sydney Rabbitohs captain Cameron Murray is a few months off completion of his duplex. He bulldozed the original home bought with fiancee Miranda Cross for $3.1m in 2022.
Former Sydney Swan Luke Parker developed a duplex in 2022.
