Reno queen Cherie Barber secures another flip
Title TattleDecember 8, 2020

The renovation queen Cherie Barber has sold another investment property.

She secured $550,000 for the four-bedroom, one-bathroom Lethbridge Park cottage which cost $360,000 in 2014.

Barber, the founder of Renovating for Profit, sold a Colyton in­vestment earlier this year.

It was bought in 2016 for $580,000, and was flipped for $870,000 after a granny flat was built.

Barber is the mystery $6 million delayed-settlement buyer of comedian Merrick Watts’ Lilyfield warehouse.

The 1920s Oh Boy Candy Company space was converted by architect Virginia Kerridge into a family home for Watts, his wife Georgie and their two children.

Watts, who formed part of the comedy duo Merrick and Rosso, paid $2.1 million in 2008 for the two-storey showroom, with sawtooth roofing.
