Seachange beckons as Piggy Riddell sells at Silverdale

Former rugby league star turned commentator Mark 'Piggy' Riddell and wife Karlie have found a buyer for their former Silverdale home.

It was the newly constructed five bedroom home which features its own football field paddock.

The 2GB Continuous Call Team radio star now faces a commute to the Pyrmont HQ from Shellharbour.

"We absolutely love our house we are selling, but just wanted that sea change and to stay out of Sydney," Riddell said.

Elders Real Estate agents Damien Sexton and Aimee Mitchell sold the home.

Riddell spent most of his career at St George Illawarra and the Eels, before a brief stint in the English Super League where he won the Super League Grand Final.

He finished his career in 2011 at the Roosters.
