Lija and John Wilson, who helped established the online Indian dating website, Troozi, have sold their three bedroom South Yarra home.

The modernised 1890s Lara Street offering came with a $1.95 million asking price after it was passed in at Kay & Burton auction last month at $1.75 million. 

It last sold at $1,242,000 in 2012 when sold by Jim Gall, the co-founder of agribusiness marketing agency Redhanded Creative, and wife, Suzanne, a former publishing executive.

They had renovated in 2010 using the architecture studio MAKE and landscaper and horticulturalist Lachie Anderson.

Lija Wilson was working previously for Fairfax on RSVP.com.au.
