Historic Hordern House at Potts Point has been listed for sale with $6.5 million hopes.

The 1880s Victoria Street terrace house was bought by the rare book dealers Anne McCormick and Derek McDonnell for $438,000 in 1985. 

Anne McCormick has been involved in rare books, manuscripts, paintings and prints since the 1970’s first in business in Paddington. They are moving to new premises.

The freestanding terrace has a 19 wide frontage, spanning three levels over 561 square metres.

The Richardson & Wrench listing agent Geoff Cox said in the marketing it was ready for adaptation to a "large, stunning and private residence with at least 4 bedrooms."
