Sydney Swans star Sam Reid sells his Coogee home for over $4million… just one WEEK after listing it for auction
Sam Reid has sold his family home in Sydney’s South Coogee, just a week after putting it on the market.
According to a report by realestate.com.au on Friday, the ‘resort-style’ home is believed to have fetched over $4million ahead of its auction date on May 22.
The four-bedroom home sold after its first open home inspection, and was one of just three freestanding houses for sale in the area.

It was advertised with a $3.5million price guide, after Sam, 29, and his wife Kim purchased the property for $1.65million back in 2014.
They then renovated the luxurious home, updating the facade and installing a new pool and kitchen.
According to a report by realestate.com.au last week, PPD Real Estate agent Zach Carter said Kate Lawrence, an interior designer and partner of Swans co-captain Luke Parker, was involved in the renovation.
