Malcolm Turnbull has defended his decision to live at his own mansion overlooking Sydney Harbour after Tony Abbott weighed in suggesting he should move to Kirribilli House to save taxpayers money.

"In my view the prime minister of Australia has one official residence and that's The Lodge in Canberra," Mr Turnbull told 3AW on Friday.
