Former Marrickville home of boxing trainer Johnny Lewis passes in $300k less than guide price

The former matrimonial home of legendary boxing trainer Johnny Lewis was passed inn at weekend auction after being listed by his ex-wife Ingreed Rojas.

It was passed in at $2.5 million, after having a $2.8 million price guide for the 1900 renovated house in Marrickville.

There were two bidders, with an opening bid of $2.2 million.

The four bedroom Federation home, which sits on a 441 sqm holding overlooking Enmore Park, is now for sale at $2.55 million.

The property became solely owned by Ms Rojas in early 2017 having been bought by the couple in 2007 for $955,000.

Lewis has worked with six world champions over his career, most notably Jeff Fenech and Kostya Tszyu.
