Doyen of Byron Hall Bobby Bawden's Potts Point apartment on the market

The Potts Point apartment of the late socialite Bobby Bawden, dubbed the doyen of the 1920s Byron Hall apartment block, is being sold.

Bawden called the three bedroom apartment her home for nearly 25 years.

Her Auntie Mame-style gin and tonic-fueled bridge parties were held well into her 90s.

The apartment's French Parisian interior design, with mirrored walls and a Palazzo style foyer, was done by its prior owner, jeweller Peter Sourry. 

Vicki Laing and Anthony Dowling at Laing Real Estate have a June 12 auction with several contracts already issued. 

Never unprepared, four years ago she wrote the guest list for her own recent wake.
