The Dirty Deeds filmmaker Deborah Balderstone and her husband, John, an investment manager, have listed their 1890s Elizabeth Bay villa with reported price hopes of more than $12.5 million. John Balderstone once worked at one of the world's biggest hedge funds, Tudor Investment Corp.

It's listed through Richardson & Wrench Elizabeth Bay agents Jason Boon and Geoff Cox and McGrath agent Ben Collier.

Hidden from the street by a high wall within gardens designed by William Dangar, it's on Billyard Avenue non-waterfront block, although it comes with shared jetty access.

There's been a William Smart redesign to the five-bedroom house in Elizabeth Bay.

The Balderstones bought the property for $6.8 million in 2003 from property entrepreneur Barry Wain.

It was unrenovated when sold by the veteran mining speculator Boris Ganke to Wain.

Title Tattle recalls the house was sold off by the Sydney City Council in 1971 for $133,000 to Boris Ganke after plans for a park were abandoned.
