Actress Asher Keddie, and her Archibald Prize-winning husband Vincent Fantauzzo, have sold their Elwood home within the asking price range of $2.75 million and $2.85 million.

Marshall White Bayside partner Matthew Pillios confirmed the private treaty sale of the Edwardian-style home, but would not comment on the sale price.

The Milton Street home was owned by the couple for five years.

They listed it for sale in February.

They had snapped up the property in 2015 for $2.061 million, records show.

In February Mr Pillios said areas of the Edwardian-style home, including the kitchen, had been meticulously renovated with one of the four bedrooms converted to an art studio where Fantauzzo painted.

Fantauzzo’s art was displayed in the home including portraits of Keddie and actor Heath Ledger, who passed away in 2008.

Keddie is best known for her role as Dr Nina Proudman in the TV series Offspring, which concluded in 2017.

She is now starring in a new ABC and Netflix series Stateless, based around the story of German-Australian woman Cornelia Rau and the Australian detention centre in which she was detained.

It’s not the first time Keddie and Fantauzzo have sold a property in Victoria. The couple offloaded their 40-hectare property Ravenswood in 2017, at the peak of Melbourne’s market.

The property, which was their country retreat in Romsey Road, Hesket, sold for $2.1 million.
