Gold Logie award-winning presenter Sonia Kruger and her partner Craig McPherson have sold their Mosman home for circa $20m.
The five-bedroom Balmoral Slopes home with wet-edge infinity pool was quietly listed for sale with Michael Coombs of Atlas a year ago but was formally launched last November with an $18.5m guide.
Coombs had it set for a March 8 auction, but that didn’t proceed as several of his buyers weren’t quite ready.
The sold sticker went up last night.
When contacted, Coombs couldn’t reveal the price, though other sources said it was just shy of $20m.

Coombs said: “We had a number of buyers interested — things are taking a bit longer but we’re still getting the outcomes.”
It’s understood the buyers were a local Mosman family.
Last November, Kathryn Welling wrote that Sonia and Craig had moved from the upper north shore to Mosman nine years ago, paying $6.475m for a house on the coveted Balmoral Slopes.
