Today Show sports presenter Alex Cullen lists Maroubra apartment
New Channel 9 Today sports presenter Alex Cullen is offloading his Maroubra investment unit.
Cullen, who spent nearly a decade as a senior correspondent on Channel 7’s flagship Sunday Night, called the two-bedroom apartment home when it was purchased in 2013.
But he and his producer wife Bonnie Campbell, with twins in tow, have been renting as they look to buy together.
The couple, who wed in 2017, welcomed daughters Audrie and Evie just over a year ago.
Recently Campbell revealed their struggle in buying a property on her Instagram account.
“Yes everyone, we’ve done it! We’ve scrimped and saved and forfeited enough smashed avocado to buy our very first house in Sydney,” Campbell captioned with a photo facetiously showing Alex and the twins in a children’s playground cubby house.
Cullen paid $602,500 seven years ago for the Maroubra apartment when he moved from Coogee.
One street back from Maroubra Beach, the second-level apartment is on the northeastern corner of a 1970s block.
Ellison Zulian Property agent Josh Ellison gave a $900,000 guide to the 16 buyer groups at yesterday’s first open.
The median two-bedroom Maroubra apartment price sits at $832,500, according to realestate.com.au.
It reports, based on five years of sales, Maroubra has seen an annual compound growth rate of 3 per cent.
Cullen grew up on a cattle farm in northern NSW, completed a journalism degree at Charles Sturt University and got his first big break in 2003 when he was hired at Prime News in Wagga Wagga
