Legendary adman John Singleton is saying goodbye to his $15m resort-style pad, set to be home for him and his seventh wife before they divorced after just seven months.
Legendary adman John Singleton has listed Panamuna Pavilion, his redundant Killcare Heights ocean-view, resort-style property.
The 82-year-old bought The Scenic Rd love nest last October, after marrying his seventh wife, Central Coast local Sarah Warry, four months earlier.
In March, it was announced they were separating. Many years earlier, “Singo” said: “Marriage only ends two ways – divorce or death. I prefer divorce.’’

It’s better to have loved and lost, yada, yada, yada.
Surrounded by the Bouddi National Park, the 2.76ha property had been designed by architect Kevin Snell as a wellness retreat.
It has a five-bedroom residence plus a separate two-bedroom guesthouse.
It comes with a magnesium swimming pool, a tennis court and a viewing deck.
The grounds include an orchard and chicken coop.

The home was designed as a wellness retreat.
It looks good as new.
The marketing material reveals empty interiors, as Singleton reportedly did not live on the property.
It was bought for $15.85m from Julian Hofer and wife Michaela Muir through Josh Canellis, at Wiseberry Peninsula, by Singleton’s longtime investment entity Ognis Pty Ltd, which is “Singo” in reverse.
There has been no formal price guide from Sydney Sotheby’s International Realty, with the campaign apparently being guided by market feedback.

Panamuna Pavilion was initially on the market in early 2020 with $10m hopes, and then in early 2021 with a $12m guide.
It is being marketed as one of Killcare Heights’ largest acreages with E3 tourism zoning.
The property is one of the area’s biggest.
It’s got almost everything you need.
But sunsets on your own just aren’t the same, apparently.
The coastal retreat is on the same hillside strip as boutique accommodation venue Bells at Killcare, which Singleton sold in 2017 following a decade of ownership.
His long association with Killcare Heights began as a child.
