Dean and Mandy Barker have a new multimillion-dollar project when they return from the America's Cup.
The couple are understood to have bought a new home on one of Auckland's most desirable streets in Herne Bay.
The house is right next door to their previous home - but further away from Oracle skipper Jimmy Spithill's place on the same street.

The Barkers sold their sprawling Herne Bay villa in April for $5.8 million.
