Veteran actor Ross Higgins’ Greenwich home for sale, and not a Kingswood in sight: Title Tattle

No gimmicky Kingswood cars or even dead flies appear in its marketing, but the actor Ross Higgins has listed his Greenwich home for sale.

Best known for his role as Ted Bulpitt in the television series Kingswood Country, Higgins is selling the four-bedroom house as he downsizes into an apartment nearby on Sydney’s lower North Shore.

The octogenarian actor expects more than $1.55 million for the Carlotta Street residence at its February 25 auction through McGrath Lane Cove agents Beth and Michael Ferguson.

The two-storey brick residence cost $295,000 in 1987.

Higgins began his career in the 1940s as a cadet at 2GB radio then made the move to television in the late 1950s. His earliest character voice was Louie the Fly, featured in Mortein fly-spray commercials for five decades between 1958 and 2008.
