Former home of Kylie Minogue and Michael Hutchence for sale
The stunning Sydney apartment that Michael Hutchence and Kylie Minogue shared for two years has hit the market.
The late INXS frontman and the Aussie pop princess lived in the Liverpool Street apartment from 1989 to 1991, with the building boasting a colourful history.
The current owner and director of AusMed Innovations Gavin Holland, who owns the Longevity Lounge in Double Bay, believes the picturesque apartment overlooking Hyde Park and the harbour was the scene of some wild parties.
“I know that back in those days there was a lot of socialising that went on, for want of a better word,” says Holland.
“In this building, there’ve been suicides, murders, famous and infamous people — all sorts of stuff."
Despite the past history of the building, the two-bedroom two-bathroom apartment boasts new finishings and stunning views of the city.
“But what we’ve done recently is spend two-and-a-half million dollars on refurbishing the rooftop pool and jacuzzi, so that’s obviously an expense the new owners won’t need to fork out.”
Hutchence is known to have lived in the apartment with Minogue on level 27, just two floors below the communal rooftop pool, for two years during their whirlwind romance.
The apartment at 2704/187 Liverpool Street, Sydney has a $3.3 million guide, and will be auctioned at the end of February.
