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

This is the third time in three years that the billionaire has attempted to offload the glorious 132-year-old Italianate house in Brighton.

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

Cox last changed hands in 2006 for $5.71 million and had high hopes of fetching a big price after another nearby mansion sold for more than $10 million in February 2021.

But it appears the $18 million to $19 million price tag for the lavish expansion proved too high for buyers.

Cox attempted to sell the luxury spread again in March 2022 with a revised price guide of $13.7 million to $15 million, but was unable to secure a sale, reports the Herald of the sun.

The large estate, called Narellan, is situated in one of Melbourne’s most affluent suburbs and occupies a 1,345 square meter block.

Set on large sculpted grounds, it features a swimming pool, gardens and a magnificent tall tower offering 360-degree views of the bay and city.

Cox and his wife Sarah have designed the home with a mix 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.
