Dr John D'Arcy finally finds Beecroft buyer

The Beecroft home of original TV doctor Dr John D'Arcy and wife Wendy O'Donnell has finally been sold having recent $1.9 million price indications.

The property, which has been the family residence for the last 36 years, initially had a price guide of $2.2 million.

It was bought by the couple in 1985 for $164,000.

Set on 1,710 square metres, the three storey, five bedroom home has been renovated over the last 12 years.

Di Jones Real Estate agent David Meldrum secured the home sale as the couple look to downsize.

Dr D'Arcy became a household name some 30 years ago when he combined his medical career with a regular spot on the Seven Network's Beyond 2000 program.

More recently he has been medical editor for Sunrise.
