Nathan Cleary has given fans a sneak peek inside his luxury $1.7million riverside Sydney home and has revealed a new addition to the luxury manor, which he has installed with the help of an interior designer.
The footy star bought the riverside home in Sydney’s West from his father, Ivan, who had initially moved in back in 2013.
The Penrith coach had bought the stunning house, which is located near the BlueBet Stadium, for approximately $1.17m.
And since taking the keys off his dad, the footy star, who is dating Matildas star Mary Fowler, has made several exciting changes to the stunning abode that is situated in a woodland area.
The 27-year-old has added a ‘chill room’ complete with a huge plasma screen TV and a games console.
An avid golfer, Cleary has also added a putting green at the back of his home, but admits he can’t bring his dog, Prince, down to the putting surface as the pup hasn’t quite yet grasped the concept of putting.

‘I can’t bring Prince down here because he is obsessed with the golf balls,’ Cleary said.
The footy star has worked with interior design studio Alicia Xiberras Interiors to help style his home, with the organisation having lifted the lid on how they went about re-designing his stunning new bathroom.
But Cleary has drafted the agency back in to help him add a post-match recovery zone in one room of the house.
During a clip posted on Alicia Xiberras Interiors’ Instagram page, Cleary walked designers through his home to a small room looking out onto the swimming pool at the rear of his house.
‘This room is sort of just sort-of a nothing room at the moment. It seems like a bit of a waste of space – a dead space,’ the Panthers half-back was heard saying on the video.
‘So I kind of want to turn this into like a recovery room, have an infrared sauna.
‘I like to be stretching sort of two nights out from the game.’
It comes as the Penrith playmaker, who spearheaded the side’s four straight premiership victories, underwent surgery in the off-season for an ongoing shoulder injury.

He had spent several months making a rapid recovery from undergoing the knife to make it back to feature in Penrith’s season opener in Las Vegas in March.
Speaking with Alicia Xiberras, the footy star stated that he also wanted to install a television in the stretching room as well as mood lights, so that he can catch up with the latest footy highlights while he completes his recovery work.
Xiberras went to work and came back with a vision for his recovery room, leaving the Penrith star stunned over a 3D design for the new room in his house.
It featured a modern yet calming aesthetic, with wooden panels being contrasted against white walls and ceilings.
Mood lights shining down from the ceiling gave the room a very mellow feel.
‘It’s just going to be a really relaxing environment,’ the designer said.
She added that there was another interesting thing missing from the footy star’s home.
‘I noticed all your hard-earned achievements just collecting dust,’ Xiberras said, with the camera panning to all of Cleary’s medals and trophies, sitting on a windowsill – including his 2021 Rugby League World Cup winners medal.

‘I was like: “These need a home.” I thought it’d be great to get a cupboard to put all your medals in!’
‘I love it,’ Cleary replied.
In the comments on the Instagram video, Cleary, reflecting on his new recovery room, wrote: ‘Now it’s one of my favourite spots in the house.
‘After a game, you’ll catch me in the sauna watching highlights and winding down. Can’t thank Alicia and the team enough for making this space what it is.’
