Kath and Kim star Jane Turner has put her stunning five-bedroom mansion in Melbourne on the market.
The beloved comedian, 63, and her husband John Denton have put the stunning property in the upscale suburb of Elwood up for sale for between $7.5 million and $8 million.
The breathtaking home was originally built in the 1880s and features spacious rooms, a wine cellar and a marble-tiled veranda.
The Tiuna Grove property also features a large outdoor swimming pool and well-maintained garden, which is overlooked by a value-added extension.
It was extended in the early 2000s by architectural firm Jackson Clements Burrows, linking the original house to the old stables at the rear with a modern extension with wooden ceilings.
Perfect for families and entertaining, it also features a large dining area, library and home office.
The desirable location is close to a variety of amenities including shopping centres, restaurants and bars, and is expected to attract significant interest from potential buyers.
Turner and her husband had previously put the property up for sale in 2020, but withdrew the offer after several weeks.
