The Randwick home of Wallabies legend Kurtley Beale has sold pre-auction for about $4.75 million.

The sale came midweek after the price guidance had been adjusted upwards by PPD’s Kenji Fukushima and Alexander Phillips ahead of its scheduled December 7 auction. It had an initial $4.5 million guide.

Beale paid $2.651 million for the updated freestanding Federation home.
