HIGH profile NRL coach Wayne Bennett and his fiancee Dale Cage are selling their near-new riverside home in Brisbane as the couple have now firmly moved to Sydney.

Bennett has called in Ray White Sherwood agent Tim Davis, who actually sold the couple their Yeronga home in 2016, to sell their home this time around again.

The pair, now in Sydney as Bennett is coaching the South Sydney Rabbitohs NRL team, are looking for interest from $2 million.

The three-storey four bedroom home at 356 Brisbane Corso, Yeronga was built in 2016 by the experienced local builders Grayhaus, recognised for high-end quality finishes.

The Corso is a popular riverside street in Brisbane - famous as a who’s who address of Brisbane sports stars and well known faces.

Ms Cage said the couple looked all over Brisbane when we were looking to buy "from Ascot and Hamilton and we both fell in love with this house together".

“It’s a warm, inviting and modern home and it’s made for entertaining,” Ms Cage said.

“It’s a wonderful street we live in, there’s good company all around. It’s a great house too that is very low maintenance.

“As soon as we walked in we knew it was right for us, and it would suit a big family as it’s got a heated pool and four big bedrooms, two of which are ensuited.”

Ray White Sherwood agent Tim Davis said the three-story modern home was only completed a few months before the pair bought it from the builder.

“It’s got an expansive, open plan lounge and dining area with soaring ceilings, striking timber flooring, bi-fold doors and banks of windows to draw in cooling breezes and natural light,” Mr Davis said.

In the gourmet kitchen it’s got contrasting stone and timber finishes, integrated appliances, dual fridge spaces, dual dishwashers, hot/cold filtered water tap, a butler’s pantry and servery window.

“The pool area is amazing, it’s a resort-style alfresco entertaining area extending off the central living space featuring a stylish outdoor kitchen, built-in BBQ and sparkling heated pool,” Mr Davis said.

“When Dale and Wayne first saw the house, they signed a contract within two days to buy it, they loved it instantly. It’s a stunning big riverside home with large bedrooms plus an office that is bigger than most standard bedrooms if a fifth bedroom was required,” Mr Davis said.

“There’s two lounge rooms and a full media room, two of the bedrooms are ensuited, and 3.5 bathrooms and three car spaces.

“It’s very low maintenance with astro turf around the pool and entertaining area, and yes Wayne’s famous BBQ is included.”
