The world-class waterfront apartment in Kurraba Point owned by Jo Minehan has sold this week for $11.2m.

”The harbour is never boring.”

Jo was reported earlier in the year saying that some of her best memories over the 28 years were watching the Naval Fleet Review in 2013 and the crossing of the Queen Elizabeth II in 2008 and Queen Victoria again in 2022.

“There have always been spectacular fireworks on New Year’s Eve and at various events at Mrs Macquarie Chair,” she said.

“The harbour is never boring.

“There is always something happening whether it be major events like New Year’s Eve, the Grand Prix sailing, the Red Bull diving and the constant arrival of cruise ships or naval ships.”

Leigh was a former CEO of PWC, a significant figure in the insurance industry, chairman of the Queenwood School Board and a Commodore of the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia. He died in 2011.

Geoff Smith, of Ray White Lower North Shore, was engaged to sell the luxury home with its picture postcard views of both the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. He declined to comment on the sale.

Earlier this month he and his colleague Geoff Allan sold the penthouse of Kurraba Residences for $28.25m a new record for a north shore apartment.

That too was a four-bedroom luxury apartment with views but it was newer and two-storey.
