The container also features two statement fireplaces in its open-plan living room.
Larry, Sylvie, and their real estate son Jay Edmur are hoping to add in a sunrise yoga deck and a swimming pool on the grounds.
This is the second holiday home that Larry has purchased. In February he paid $1.1 million for a home in Berowra Waters.
The 55-year-old purchased the luxurious property as a getaway from his home in upscale Bondi in Sydney.

‘The magical bay is much quieter than Bondi,’ Larry told The Daily Telegraph at the time.
Last month the Channel Seven star and his wife quietly put their two Bondi investment properties on the market.
Despite the COVID-19 recession having an impact on the Sydney housing market, Larry decided to list the properties on the back of his real estate agent son’s recent success in the suburb.
Jay Edmur set a building record with the $1.36 million sale of a two-bedroom apartment located on Ramsgate Avenue in North Bondi, and now he is hoping to do the same for his father.

The first property listed is a one-bedroom apartment located on Brighton Boulevard.
The couple purchased the property for $318,000 in 2001, and it currently rents for $600 per week.
The second property is a larger two-bedroom apartment that the couple bought for $400,000 that same year.
The apartment is located on Glenn Street and is renting for $850 per week.
According to the publication, Jye expects that his father will put both apartments on the general market. It is reported that the apartments could sell for up to $1 million each.
