Stage and screen star John Diedrich seeks tropical Bellevue Hill buyers
Legendary stage and screen stars, John Diedrich and Jo-Anne Robinson knocked back $3.1 million when their Bellevue Hill home went to auction on Tuesday night.
The pair have made their showbiz names over the decades both in Australia and internationally.
Its a five bedroom P&O style home with views of the harbour towards Manly. The 1,182 square metre holding was bought for $1.1 million in 1994.
John has been working in musical theatre as an actor, director and producer for over 40 years. His wife Jo-Anne has choreographed plays and musicals such as Phantom of the Opera, Miss Saigon and the original London production of Cats. She too, has had an extremely successful career as a stage and television director.
The two level house sits on level lawn framed by a tropical garden with grotto. It was like that with numerous guava, kiwi, macadamia and avocado plantings on its 1994 acquisition, when the house had a triplex apartment setup.
The interiors now accommodate a large living and dining area, a separate media room, three bedrooms, master suite with study and two bathrooms. There is also a detached cottage.
