Pick a South Yarra property: footy card seller Grant Copley lists
Grant Copley, managing director of footy card seller Select Australia, has put his South Yarra home up for auction.
It has been listed for June 22 auction by James McCormack and Dean Gilbert at Marshall White.
The house was bought from the current Sydney Swans coach John Longmire in 2001.
The double-fronted Victorian on Argo Street had been pitched to potential buyers at $650,000-plus by Marshall White with Longmire securing $865,000.
It had traded at $410,000 in 1997.
Fairfax Media reported it was expected to fetch $1.1 million at its June 2013 auction.
The 291 square metre property features three bedrooms, a sitting room or study with open fireplace and one bathroom. The house also has a paved courtyard with covered BBQ terrace and secure off street parking.
The former North Melbourne Roos stalwart John Longmire was a Kangaroos player of 12 years and 201 games between 1988 and 1999.
He then had two years off from football in the media before taking up an assistant coaching job at the Swans given his connection with Rodney Eade who was an assistant coach of North Melbourne during the early 1990s.
