Wallabies star Nick Phipps will be spending time over Australia's June Test series unpacking as he recovers from an ankle injury.
He's just settled on a home in Queens Park with his Macquarie banker partner, Ebony Bamford.
The couple paid $2,105,000 for the 1890s Victorian terrace in, according to the listing, is a tightly held parkside avenue.
Settlement came just days after it was announced that Phipps, a veteran of 52 caps, would miss the June Tests against Fiji, Scotland and Italy.
The scrum-half rolled his ankle in the Waratahs' loss to the Highlanders late last month with scans showing he has syndemosis which will likely result in a stint on the sidelines.
His new home is just a short stroll across Centennial Park to the Allianz stadium. 
It's also not too far from Wallabies boss Michael Cheika, who resides in a $4.8 million home in Randwick.
Phipps' Victorian terrace has three bedrooms - two of which come with a balcony - plus a study.

Offering an abundance of indoor and outdoor living, the dining and living spaces open to a rear garden, dining terrace and wraparound courtyard.
Alexander Phillips and Gavin Lewis at Phillips Pantzer Donnelly sold the home.
It's the couples first property purchase together.
Phipps still holds on to a two bedroom investment unit in Cremorne that cost $590,000 in 2012.
Phipps began his career at the Melbourne Rebels in 2010 where he was mentored by former Wallaby halfback Sam Cordingley.
He moved to Sydney to play for the Waratahs in 2014, the same year he played every Test for the Wallabies.

Wallabies star Nick Phipps and Macquarie banker partner Ebony Bamford have taken to the Queens Park market.
The couple, who <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/71740-nick-phipps-buys-in-queens-park" target="_blank">bought their first home together</a> in the parkside suburb last year, have bought another. It's the <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-nsw-queens+park-127342038" target="_blank">terrace next door.</a>
There are no plans for a compound. It will become an investment as they see the area offering great growth over the next few years.
They've paid $1.7 million for the Victorian terrace which has been promptly leased at $1,100 a week, reflecting a rental yield just over 3%.
Built in the 1910s, the home with modern updates has two bedrooms, a study and a leafy courtyard garden.
Belle Property agent Edward Brown sold the home.
Phipps and Bamford last year spent $2,105,000 on the adjoining 1890s Victorian terrace on the tightly held parkside avenue.
Bigger in size, the home has three bedrooms - two of which come with a balcony - and a study.
Phipps still holds on to a two bedroom investment unit in Cremorne that cost $590,000 in 2012.
Phipps began his career at the Melbourne Rebels in 2010 where he was mentored by former Wallaby halfback Sam Cordingley.
He moved to Sydney to play for the Waratahs in 2014, the same year he played every Test for the Wallabies.   
Phipps has been out for most of the season with a continual calf problem.

Now happily settled in Newcastle with the Knights, NRL star Aidan Guerra has listed the Queens Park apartment bought when he was with the Roosters.
He paid $965,000 for the property in 2015.

The <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-nsw-queens+park-128978514" target="_blank">two bathroom, two bedroom apartment</a> comes with one parking spot.
Gueera made the switch from the Roosters to the Newcastle Knights after which he purchased a Merewether home for himself and his family while he co-captains the club with his old mate Mitchell Pearce.
It has been rented out at $600 a week. 
After Guerra made the switch north, he <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/83099-knights-recruit-aidan-guerra-finds-a-merewether-home" target="_blank">purchased a Merewether home</a> for his family.

Guerra paid $1,005,000 for the home, after agents sought $975,000 plus.
He retains a <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/72888-sydney-roosters-forward-aidan-guerra-buys-in-byron" target="_blank">Byron Bay investment property</a> which he paid $830,000.

Knights star Aidan Guerra lists Queens Park apartment

Wallabies skipper Michael Hooper has deftly moved closer to the NSW Waratah's home base from the Northern Beaches.
The 26 year old flanker has quietly bought a bolthole Queens Park apartment, not far from the Allianz. He wanted to be closer to the Rugby HQ plus the new training facility at Daceyville.
Hooper has long expressed his love for the northern beaches, and fully intends on returning after renovating his Fairlight home.
His $2,065,000 purchase in 2016 was his first entry into the Sydney property market.
The one level, four bedroom home was advertised as an opportunity to revive a classic character home.
It features interior timber fretwork and flooring throughout. There's a covered entertainers' terrace beside a deep rear level lawn at the 460 square metre property.
Hooper recently secured a $1,200 a week tenant through Bergelin Estate Agents Manly Harry Bergelin. 
His new purchase is a garden apartment in the 2006 built Brian Meyerson-designed complex.
Belle Property Bondi Junction agents Edward Brown and William Hoston sold the apartment that had been a $700 plus a week rental before its sale. It last traded for $516,000 in 2006.
The living and dining area with polished timber floors opens to a balcony.  
It's not the first time a rugby player has bought in to the block to be close to his work.
Former Sydney Rooster Aidan Guerra paid $965,000 in 2015 when he was with the Chooks. 
He's just sold the two bedroom apartment having settled in Newcastle with the Knights.
Hooper, the Collaroy-born star who started his career at the Brumbies in 2012, has racked up 84 caps for the Wallabies over the last six years.
