Channel 7 presenter Angie Asimus and her husband Chris Abbott have upsized on the northern bea­ches ahead of the birth of their first child.

The couple, who wed on Valentine’s Day last month after 12 years together, have moved inland from Collaroy to Belrose.

They’ve paid $1.55 million for an original 1970s single level family home, traded for the first time since 1984 at $139,500.

It was marketed by LJ Hooker Frenchs Forest agents Troy McKinstry and Shane Broekman as an exciting ­opportunity to create a dream home.

They only had it listed for 16 days before it sold.

Set on a 700sqm block, every room in the three bedroom house opens to the outdoor areas which feature gardens, front and back decks and a pool.

The Belrose median house price is $1,555,000 according to real­estate.com.au

Asimus and Abbott have kept their Collaroy apartment which was bought for $870,000 four years ago. The two-bedroom apartment in a 1970s complex just off the beach has become a $700 a week rental.

Asimus (inset), who has ­returned to Sydney after being a newsreader in Brisbane, ­recently offloaded her former Brisbane home turned investment, for $629,000. She had paid $405,000 for the four-bedroom, 1980s Jindalee, in Brisbane’s west, in 2012.

Asimus started her career as a journalist in 2008 with Seven Queensland, working at its Townsville newsroom.
