The intended matrimonial home of celebrity trainer Michelle Bridges and her former husband Bill Moore has been sold.

It achieved its desired $4.5 million plus ambitions ahead of last weekend's scheduled Cobden & Hayson auction.

With its two year makeover, the then couple had bought the sandstone home at 10 Wharf Road in Birchgrove for $2.35 million in 2011.

It renovations were said to have cost as much again.

The builders only recently completed the renovation of the three bedroom 1870s home which has been sold to an inner west buyer, though not from the Balmain peninsula.

The Biggest Loser fitness trainers Michelle Bridges and Steve "Commando" Willis are set to stay in their Potts Point apartment following the upcoming birth of their first child.

It was early 2013 when the then Biggest Loser star and her husband, Bill Moore split after nine years of marriage, while keeping their multimillion-dollar fitness empire intact, with Bill retaining his role as business manager.

The couple had met at Moore's Balmain gym and then renovated their Rozelle house, where Moore continues to reside.

Birchgrove's highest non-waterfront was a $4.1 million sale in 2013 on Rose Street.
