Stand-up comedian Carl Barron lists luxury Potts Point apartment
Australia’s biggest live touring comedian Carl Barron has listed his luxury three-bedroom Potts Point apartment.
Currently touring Europe, Barron has quietly listed the northwest-facing 16th-floor Rockwall Apartments, seeking $5 million to $5.5 million.
With Opera House and Harbour Bridge views from its two alfresco balconies, it cost him $4 million in 2013, marked down on the $4.25 million then being sought.
He was upsizing at the time, from an apartment in the Ikon complex around the corner on Macleay Street, which he still owns and cost him $1,825,000 in 2008.
The Ikon apartment has been a $1500 a week rental in recent times.
The Rockwall inspections are by appointment only through Jason Boon at Richardson & Wrench who offer a rental income estimate of $3000 a week.
The three-bedroom apartment boasts a master suite with mosaic ensuite.
The open-plan main living room adjoins a bow-fronted sunroom area.
Barron’s strata levies are $5792.45 per quarter.
The comedian's tour started in Oslo, before shows in Antwerp, Amsterdam, Stockholm and Copenhagen.
