A Mosman mansion that last sold for $11.75m as the Covid lockdown hit in 2020 has returned to the market with considerably higher price expectations.

Completed in 2019, the sleek six-bedroom, four-bathroom home with three-car garage at 3A Avenue Rd has a guide of $13.5m-$14.3m through the same listing team at Atlas by LJ Hooker Lower North Shore that sold it last time.

Records show the property is owned by the little-known Shao Ying Zhang, from China, who’d snapped it up in 2020 from barrister Stefan Schonell and his wife, Di Jones real estate agent Priscilla Schonell.

Sales agent Bo Zhang, who shares the listing with his Atlas colleague Michael Coombs in an expressions of interest campaign closing June 28, says the home offers attributes we’ve come to especially appreciate post-Covid.

“I find this home to be so convenient being located close to Mosman village,” he said.

“Internally, it’s very spacious with six bedrooms, including a studio, so it is ideal for a growing family or having the choice of home offices.”

When Studio Johnston (formerly Fox Johnston Architects) were given the brief to create a contemporary home, they used the steep topography tactically to ensure every room has a water or garden outlook.

Some rooms have been expertly cantilevered over the garden terrace to inch closer to the harbour below.

Throughout the residence there is ample use of natural materials including handmade bricks, sandstone blocks, timber joinery, limestone floors and aged brass hardware.

With water views front and centre of the architects’ minds, the main living spaces and several bedrooms feature grand walls of glass that frame Mosman Bay and allow for plenty natural light.

On the ground floor living level, the combined kitchen and dining zone, plus a separate lounge room, all sit in the dress circle position with sliding doors opening seamlessly to a winter garden style courtyard as well as a grassed lawn and pool area.

The Bisazza mosaic heated infinity pool is surrounded by established landscaping, alfresco dining spaces and integrated barbecue amenities.

The gourmet gas kitchen has Miele appliances, a Neolith Calacatta marble island bench, picture window splashbacks, a butler’s pantry and an additional larder.

Around the corner there is a large American oak wine room, a laundry with external access and a powder room.

On the accomodation level the main bedroom has panoramic views, a large ensuite with a freestanding bathtub as well as palatial dressing room with skylights.

There are four more bedrooms on this level, each with built-ins and sliding doors that open up to the harbour breezes.

The floor is also home to two shared bathrooms.

For guests, extended family or live-in staff, a fully self-contained studio sits on the lower entry level.

Adjacent to the studio there is a home theatre with eight leather reclining seats and a gym.

With a long list of state of the art luxury inclusions, the Mosman property features smart technology and security plus a commercial grade lift to all levels from the triple lock up garage.
