He is the international superstar who has never been shy about expressing his love for Australia.
And now it looks like music legend Sir Elton John could be heading Down Under for an extended stay.
There are reports that the 76-year-old has had his representatives looking into buying up ultra-exclusive Sydney real estate worth as much as $50 million.
Sir Elton’s manager was spotted looking at a stunning penthouse at the prestigious Kurraba Residences The North Shore Times on Friday.
Famous for its breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour, the block, located on the northern waterfront at Kurraba Point, opened last December.

According to the report, most of the 24 apartments in the stylish block have already been sold.
However, two of the penthouses – both with an estimated value of $50 million – have yet to go under the hammer.
One appears to be styled as a ‘superstar’ path. Known as ‘The Kurraba’, it measures 600 square meters and features four bedrooms and four bathrooms.

Sir Elton, who has been traveling to Australia since 1971, is known to spend long periods Down Under between trips with his band.
In 2017, the Tiny Dancer hitmaker said: “I always love coming back to Australia,” ahead of his umpteenth tour here.
Concert promoter Michael Chugg said at the time: ‘Elton loves Australia and Australians, it’s an ongoing affair.’
The apartments offer chic design features
In 1984, Sir Elton married German-born sound engineer Renate Blauel in a traditional ceremony at St Mark’s Church in Sydney.
It wasn’t until 1988 that the flamboyant artist announced he was openly gay – around the same time the couple divorced.
Sir Elton and his husband David Furnish in 2014 and are known to own a large property portfolio in Europe, the UK and the US.
