Buyers always love a dump, so a dilapidated Darlinghurst terrace has seen potential buyers carefully streaming over its slightly perilous wooden floorboards over the past few weeks.
The home was listed with $1.75 million hopes through James Peach at Ray White TaylorJones for weekend auction.
Property Observer set up a video of the auction below.
It sold at $1,885,000.
The four bedroom, one bathroom house located at 141 Womerah Avenue dates back to the 1890s.
It features an original floorplan spanning two levels on the 108 sq m block.
It last sold in 1955 when machinist Humbert Teuma paid £3,150.
The listing agent James Peach suggested that $500,000 plus would be needed to bring the terrace up to scratch.
