AFL stars Silvagni, Laverde score $1m+ house sales

AFL players Jack Silvagni and Jayden Laverde both sold Melbourne homes on the weekend.

Both soon-to-be Saint Jack Silvagni and long-serving Bomber Jayden Laverde scored seven-figure house sales on Saturday.

This week saw Victoria record a preliminary 72.9 per cent clearance rate from 569 early auction results, according to PropTrack.

Silvagni, who is set to leave Carlton as an unrestricted free agent and join St Kilda for the 2026 AFL season, has sold a Mont Albert North house.

Marshall White Boroondara director Chris Barrett declined to comment on the home’s price or the owner, but title documents show it belongs to Silvagni.

The four-bedroom home, which went under the hammer with a $1.65m-$1.8m range, sold for $1.99m at a public auction contested by four bidders.

Mr Barrett said a family bought the property. “It was well renovated with a favoured northern rear orientation and on a good-sized block close to all the amenities, public transport, the freeway and schools,” he said.

Records show Silvagni purchased the abode for $1.55m in 2019.

Silvagni, the son of Carlton veteran Stephen Silvagni who is now a St Kilda listing manager, has played 128 games for the Blues.

The kitchen is fitted with stone benches and a 90cm Ilve oven.

And Laverde, who joined Essendon in 2015, and his wife Abbey Kosmatos farewelled their three-bedroom Ascot Vale house on Saturday as well.

The home passed in on a $1.52m vendor bid and later sold for an undisclosed price following negotiations with two interested buyers.

Nelson Alexander partner Jayson Watts said the Victorian-era abode was purchased by a young buyer who plans to live there with his partner.

The open-plan living and dining area includes an open fireplace and a kitchen with stainless-steel cooking appliances and an AEG dishwasher.

“They love the location close to Union Rd, the northern orientation, the floorplan and the layout,” Mr Watts added.

In addition to playing 145 games with the Bombers, Watts and his Essendon teammate Zach Merrett launched the streetwear clothing label Dryp last year.

PropTrack is expecting 1330 auctions across the state next week.
