Mr Mintz made more than $300m from selling shares in the company after floating it on the Australian Stock Exchange in 2020.
Records show he owns the five-bedroom house featuring a six-car garage, travertine-edged heated pool, wine cellar and tasting room with an adjoining kitchenette, lift and commercial-grade security.
He paid $14.5m for the mansion, in 2021, which is now listed with Melbourne Sotheby’s International Realty’s Antoinette Nido, Max Ruttner and Casey Jiang.
Described as a “modernist masterwork of rare ambition”, the home was designed by Flack Studio and architect Richard Blight of Blight, Blight & Blight, and built by Leone Constructions.
The listing agents reported the spiral staircase took six months to build and install.
