Carmel Harrington, the sleep doctor, lists in South Coogee
Dr Carmel Harrington, the Australian sleep scientist, and husband, Steven Miller, have listed their South Coogee home after all their children surprised them by moving out.
The couple have owned there since 1998 when they paid $661,000, and after a failed listing in 2005, set about renovating the freestanding four bedroom home with a French feel, complete with sandstone-framed parterre garden.
It goes to auction September 7 through Di Jones agent Victoria Morish with a $2.7 million price guide.
The former lawyer, with a PHD in sleep medicine, is considering another overseas sabbatical to write her next book.
They spent two years from 2009 in France, where she wrote her first book, The Sleep Diet.
