Cricketer Peter Siddle sells in Ormond
Australian test cricketer Peter Siddle is pulling up stumps on his Ormond home, selling his California bungalow at weekend auction.
The four-bedroom, two-bathroom home had been renovated behind its original 1920s style with a modern rear extension.
Siddle sold for $2.05 million after auction.
The home, passed in at $2.02 million, sold to a New Zealand family moving to Melbourne.
The Anthony Street home has three outdoor areas – an alfresco area, a deck with outdoor kitchen, spa and sauna, and another deck out onto a lawn area.
There’s also room for pets, with the backyard big enough a few chickens and dogs.
Siddle, who’s taken more than 200 wickets in his 61-test career, had agent William Van den Dungan of Noel Jones Camberwell undertake the marketing.
Siddle and fiancée Anna Weatherlake – who will marry early next year – are looking to build their own home in a bayside suburb.
