Ivy Lane, Darlington warehouse finds $3.325m buyer

The Darlington inner-city warehouse of photographer Baz Anderson and his partner, Beverley Larsson, was listed for sale with initial $2.5 million hopes which were raised to $2.65 million.

But the three-level property fetched $3.325 million at weekend auction.

It was used as a studio for the portraiture work by J. Barry Anderson.

The Ivy Lane property has a commercial lease until October at $6,500 a month to the market research agency Ruby Cha Cha.

The vendors bought the then single-storey industrial building on its 170 sqm block in 1992 for $220,000.

There's 293 sqm internal space plus a 17 sqm mezzanine level. 

Estate agent William Phillips marketed it as a designer home.

The buyers are believed to be a couple from the area, The Sunday Telegraph reported.
