NRL halfback Nathan Cleary has snapped up a place at Curl Curl on Sydney's Northern Beaches for $5.5 million and immediately listed it for rent at $2,350 per week.

The Penrith Panthers star bought the beachside home and offered it for rent rather than living there himself. Curl Curl sits on Sydney's Northern Beaches, one of the city's more sought-after coastal strips. No additional information about the property's details or handover date have been made public.
