Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in the process of acquiring a clifftop property on the Central Coast, where fiancée Jodie Haydon’s family has deep roots.
The property, located in a beachside suburb, offers “uninterrupted ocean views from all levels” and has been described as “clifftop perfection,” according to 2GB radio host Ben Fordham, who first reported the story on Tuesday, October 15.
The home, which boasts four bedrooms and three bathrooms, was sold in September for an undisclosed sum, as reported by Domain.
A real estate listing for the property highlights its idyllic location, perfect for “sun, whale watching or spectacular sunsets year-round”.
A spokesperson for the Prime Minister confirmed that Albanese is planning to buy the home on the Central Coast, where Haydon grew up and where three generations of her family currently reside.
“When the process is complete, it will be declared on the parliamentary register.
Albanese, who previously resided in Sydney’s inner-west suburb of Marrickville before moving into The Lodge in Canberra, commented on the upcoming purchase, saying, “Jodie’s a Coastie, and spending time there is awesome”.
This new property marks a significant lifestyle shift for Albanese, moving from the bustling city life of Sydney to the tranquil shores of the Central Coast.
He is also in the process of selling an investment property in Sydney’s inner west, with a price guide nearing $2M.
This property made headlines earlier this year when Albanese’s former tenant publicly spoke about being asked to vacate as the property was listed for sale.
Albanese cited personal life changes as the reason for selling the investment home, which comes as he prepares for a “new chapter” with his fiancée.
The couple became engaged in February, making Albanese the first prime minister to get engaged while in office. However, he has made it clear that they will hold off on wedding plans until after the next federal election, expected by May.
The decision to buy the coastal property reflects Albanese’s deepening ties to the Central Coast and his commitment to balancing both personal and professional milestones while leading the country.
he should go into a proper retirement village
Dont like the Labour Government but truly people need to get a life. Leave him and his partner alone re buying a house!
He has done it legally without any sign of corruption. Unlike another former P.M. who had very very dubious links to Union financial advantage!
