Nova's Wippa secures Queens Park sale

Nova FM breakfast radio star Michael “Wippa” Wipfli and his wife Lisa have finally sold their Queens Park home.

They initially had $2.5 million hopes six weeks ago, however they sold for $2.4 million, having reduced their price signalling to $2.3 million during the marketing campaign.

Restaurateur Nigel Ward, who recently sold in Paddington, has bought the Queens Park home.

The couple snapped up the home in 2014, paying $1.87 million just six days in to its marketing.

On a 160 square metre block on Rawson Avenue, the architect-designed home has four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Phillips Pantzer Donnelley agents Debbie Donnelley and Nick Quigley marketed the classic Federation semi.

Wipe had previously owned in Melbourne’s Armadale having sold in 2016 for $1,825,000.

Set near swish High Street, the home had cost $1.48 million in 2010, not long before Wipfli was transferred to Sydney.

The family are considering a move closer to schools for kids Theodore and Jack.

Wippa has been a household name since 2009 when he teamed up with Ryan Shelton and Katie “Monty” Dimond on Nova’s drive show.

In 2011 Wippa joined Ryan “Fitzy” Fitzgerald.

Wife Lisa, whom he married in 2013, is co-owner of baby health food company Nourishing Bubs.
