The Coogee home of Jennifer Hawkins, the former Miss Universe, television personality and swimwear designer, and her fiance, Jake Wall, was passed in at weekend auction on a $2.5 million vendor bid through McGrath agent Adrian Bo.
It’s now listed with a $2.6 million asking price.
The couple moved out of the Moore Street townhouse several months ago – staying at The Star casino in the interim – while waiting for construction of their northern beaches home to be completed in the Windy Dropdown gated estate.
The 2003-built Coogee property has three bedrooms and three bathrooms. It cost Hawkins $2.27 million in late 2008.
The main bedroom comes with ensuite, dressing room and terrace. One of its ultra-modern bathrooms has a Japanese agape spoon bath. Its third bedroom could be a home theatre or home office.
There’s a private rooftop terrace with ocean views as well as a cellar – all a stroll to Gordon’s Bay and Coogee and minutes to shops, cafes and transport.
Much of the house, including a feature wall of Florence Broadhurst-style wallpaper, pre-dates Hawkins’ 2008 purchase.
