93-95 Grosvenor Drive, Wandana Heights, has sold in an undisclosed deal.
A luxury six-bedroom home has set a new benchmark at Wandana Heights in a deal worth in the vicinity of $6m.
The landmark three-level home on a 4172sq m Grosvenor Drive property makes the most of its position just below Ceres lookout.
Buxton Highton agent Ian Nichols said he couldn’t reveal details about the confidential sale.
The house was listed with price hopes of $6.3m to $6.9m, the biggest asking price for a residential home in the southern Geelong suburb.

The three-level mansion spread over 766sq m of living space gives nearly every room a view, and packs in just about every feature a family would want.
Among these are a seven-car garage with separate workshop and storage rooms, a Avanti lift, a 3.8m home cinema screen with 1080HD projector, a gym and a Sonos sound system to the living spaces, main bedroom and main outdoor area overlooking the pool and spa.
The 270-degree vista from the top floor stretches from Mt Anakie to the Surf Coast, taking in Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula and the bay to Melbourne’s skyline.
The main living area enjoys a panoramic view across Geelong.
The pool is surrunded with an outdoor kitchen, hot tub and entertainment area.
A grand chandelier in a soaring entry void combines with a three-level steel and French oak staircase and lift in the centre of the home, where the lavish fixtures and fittings include French oak flooring, a gas landscape fireplace, and a suite of Miele appliances and Abey Schock double sinks in the kitchen and butler’s pantry, dramatic light fittings on the high ceilings and a Fujitsu ducted heating and cooling system in four zones.
The in-ground pool has solar and gas heating, self-cleaning and chlorination, and the six-person Sapphire spa has a constant heat pump.
Behind the scenes, there’s a 13.77kW solar system, a security system, automated watering, electric gates, a ducted vacuum system and a large laundry with walk-in linen storage, a drying cupboard and a chute.
A 3.8m home cinema screen is among the long-list of inclusions in the home.
10 Mercer Pde, Newtown, was intially listed with a guide from $4.4m to $4.8m.
Meanwhile an epic knockdown-rebuilt project in Newtown became the latest multimillion sale in Geelong’s most-prestigious suburb.
The Advertiser understands the property sold in a deal circa-$3.8m.
The property was listed in mid-2025 with $4.4m to $4.8m price expectations.
Whitford, Newtown director John Moran said he couldn’t disclose any detail about the sale of the four-bedroom Mercer Parade home.
When the property was listed, Mr Moran told the Advertiser landscaping was integral to the jaw-dropping entry to the four-bedroom home, a collaboration between the owners, Chris Idle from Idle Architecture Studio and builder Ben Jolley.
The house features a tiled swimming pool, which can be conveniently concealed under a hidden Sunbather automatic cover, while the basement garage offers space to park up to six vehicles, with fast-charging capabilities, a workshop and a 1200-bottle wine cellar.
Landscaping plays an important role in the design of the home.
Living areas look out to the landscaped back yard.
A lift connects the basement to the two floors above, where a flexible floor plan provides three separate living areas and four bedrooms, including a spacious main suite.
High 3.2m ceilings, featuring oak accents to the entry and central dining area, and large windows make a grand statement in both living areas on the main level.
A premium kitchen with a granite island bench, Siemens appliances and a huge butler’s pantry with a second sink and dishwasher presides over the north-facing rear lounge.
The sales continue a recent run of top-end sales in the Geelong region, including a $3.7m deal for a restored historic Newtown mansion.
But Geelong buyers advocate Tony Slack said high-end sales were often determined by the homes available on the market and timing for somewhat passive buyers.
“They’re still price-centric. They understand value and more likely to be know what to pay for the right property and don’t buy at all costs.
“For the majority of the top-end market it’s more about when the opportunity presents itself that it will transact.”
