Sam Wood selling $7.15 million Brighton home he owns with wife Snezana from behind bars as he remains in jail on domestic violence charges

Sam Wood is forging ahead with the sale of the Brighton property that he shares with wife Snezana, despite being currently imprisoned on domestic violence charges. 

The Bachelor star and his partner had planned to list the $7.15 million home, which they bought in 2025, in the days before Wood’s arrest. 

Coincidentally, the listing was ‘days, if not hours, away’ when Wood was jailed, according to the Herald Sun.

That listing has gone ahead, with ‘pre-sale preparations underway at the property,’ the publication reports. 

An online sales campaign is expected to launch this week, helmed by Jellis Craig agent Michael Hingston.

The Wood family purchased their Brighton home in September 2025 for a whopping $7 million, just months after selling their Elsternwick property for $6.6 million.

They had the use of a pool and tennis court at the five-bedroom, three-bathroom abode, with Wood and Snezana moving in earlier this year. 

Wood, 46, remains behind bars and on Tuesday was moved to a new prison that houses some of the most reviled and infamous killers, rapists and paedophiles in Australia.

The personal trainer was arrested and charged with domestic violence offences just over a week ago after an alleged assault at their $3,000-a-night Noosa holiday home on October 3.

Wood was refused bail last Thursday when he fronted Maroochydore Magistrates’ Court over the alleged offences against Snezana, who is fully supportive of the charges proceeding.

Prosecutors alleged Wood pushed his wife into a wardrobe, grabbed her by the throat, threw her against a wall and struck her head against the floor during the incident, which was witnessed by her daughter Eve, 21, who called triple-0.

When he faced court in Queensland last Thursday, police prosecutor Sergeant Jeanette Grigoris noted he had previously choked Snezana in a similar incident.

Sergeant Grigoris said Wood had not been charged over that alleged attack, but told the court his behaviour had been ‘escalating’.

It is alleged that a row broke out in Noosa ahead of the couple returning to Melbourne, and Snezana was pushed into a wardrobe before Eve intervened.

The court heard Eve told Wood to stop shouting, prompting him to approach her ‘aggressively’ before Snezana tried to get between them.

Wood is then alleged to have put his hands around Snezana’s throat and forced her to the floor, where he pinned her down and banged her head, leaving her unable to breathe.

She told police she thought ‘this was it… her life was going to end’. She said she thought Wood was ‘going to kill her’, the court heard.

Snezana had also told police Wood was ‘volatile and prone to angry outbursts’, and said she had to ‘walk on eggshells around him’.

Mr Cuskelly said his client suffered from severe depression and might rely on self-defence if the case went to trial.

While a paramedic had stated there was an injury to the left side of Snezana’s head, Mr Cuskelly said two tendered photographs did not show that injury.

The lawyer added: ‘He repeatedly denied that this had occurred. Where’s the injuries to her throat? They’re not there.

‘My client denies committing these offences.

‘He’s never been before the courts before. He’s a businessman [and] Mr Wood’s depression is regarded as extremely severe.’

Meanwhile, Snezana stepped out in public on Tuesday for the first time since the charges. 

In exclusive pictures obtained by the Mail, 46-year-old Snezana was seen without her wedding ring during an outing in Melbourne.
