A four-bedroom Toorak home on 1811 square metres that failed to sell after 111 days on the market last year has sold for $19 million – just under its last asking price – in a sign that properties at Melbourne’s top end are moving.

The 1920s Arts and Crafts solid brick family home at 8 Robertson Street sold off-market this month, below the $19.95 million asking price it had when listed with another agent last year, and five months after RT Edgar agent Mark Wridgway first took it over.
