Niddrie for sale in Wollstonecraft

One of Wollstonecraft's largest privately held holdings has been listed for sale with hopes of $9.3 million.

The 1905 built Niddrie has been owned by Matthew Levins, who heads up risk consultancy Eirdin Consultin, and wife Sonia for over 20 years.

They paid $1.29 million for the home that was previously owned by the late barrister and pastoralist Frank McAlary.

Set on 2076 sqm, the classic Federation is surrounded by well maintained grounds that features a tennis court, swimming pool and cabana.

There's five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a home office. 

It's located across the road from the long-held home of former prime minister John Howard and wife Janette.

Christie's International agents Martin Ross and Darren Curtis are asking $8.5 million to $9.3 million.

The Levins are off to their $2.8 million three bedroom apartment in The Bay Residences in Double Bay.
