A magnificent retro-style home in Sydney's eastern suburbs owned by top Channel Seven executive Bruce McWilliam is set to go under the hammer next month.
Located in the sought-after 'Paris' end of Paddington, 5km from the CBD, the luxurious apartment has been listed with a stunning price tag of $14.5 million.
McWilliam purchased the spacious, two-story, three-bedroom, three-bathroom home as an investment property in 2002 for $2,735,000, The Wentworth Courier reports.
Since then, McWilliam, Seven's commercial director, has renovated the original house into a chic “European” style residence.
Features include hardwood floors, French doors, and two private covered balconies – known as loggias – that open from the upstairs bedrooms.

According to the report, McWilliams' hopes of making a big profit from the sale are well-founded, as the five-bedroom apartment next door went under the hammer in November for a staggering $17.5 million.
In 2021, the Chron Australia reported that McWilliam is estimated to own around $100 million worth of residential properties in Sydney's eastern suburbs, as well as commercial properties in Double Bay.
This year, the high-profile executive sold a Spanish-style investment property in Bellevue Hill for $9 million.
The five-bedroom home was listed with a guide price of $8.5 million, but is believed to have sold for “well over that.”
He bought the Bellevue Hill home in the name of his wife, Nicole McWilliam, in 2007 for $4.72 million and rented it out for $4,000 a week.
McWilliam lives on a property in Point Piper, near his good friend and former business partner Malcolm Turnbull.
