PRIME Minister Julia Gillard has sold her Canberra apartment for $615,000.

The sale was declared this week in an update to the prime minister's parliamentary pecuniary interest register.

She bought the two-bedroom apartment in Wentworth Avenue, Kingston, in December 2007 for $530,000 and used it before moving into The Lodge in 2010.

"Attention to detail is evident in every room of this apartment," the sales brochure reads.

While the sale occurred in October last year, it was not formally reported on the register because of a lengthy settlement period.

The prime minister also owns a home in her Melbourne electorate.
