Isla Fisher delays sale of $1million Sydney apartment and slashes price just hours before it was set to go to auction

Isla Fisher has delayed the sale of her Sydney apartment just hours before it was due to go under the hammer at auction.

The Wedding Crashers star, 48, purchased the apartment, located in the Sydney suburb of Woolahra back in 1995, at age 19, for just $171,500 after landing her role on Home And Away .

The auction was set for just hours before Saturday's AFL Grand final but as reported by News Corp , the auction was delayed for two weeks.

JK Agency principal Michael Minogue told the publication the auction was shelved due to a 'soft' market and that the price guide had been cut from $1million to $900,000 to generate more interest.

'The vendor's said let's get it sold', he told the publication.

'We'll go in two weeks if not sold prior, there's already a bit of interest.'

The two-bedroom Woollahra property is located just meters from Centennial Park and is just a short walk to Bondi Junction.

The listing describes the pad as having a 'New York-inspired feel' and boasts high ceilings and 'stunning' period details.

Isla managed to keep the home in a small win during her split from husband Sacha Baron Cohen.

The former Home and Away star was just 19 when she first bought the 1930s Woollahra flat, with the unit being renovated years later in 2020.

Isla and Sacha, 52, who jointly filed to end their marriage in 2023 , share two daughters and one son who they often keep out of the public eye.

The couple first met back in 2001 and tied the knot in 2010, with the end of their marriage coming just a few years after relocating their family to Australia .

They had moved from Los Angeles to Sydney in 2020, then to Perth – where Isla's family live – in September 2021, to escape Sydney's strict Covid lockdown rules.

At the time, they said the switch to Western Australia would be permanent.

However, their move from the US to Australia was said to be 'difficult' for Sacha because he was settled in Hollywood with a shorter flight to London from there.

The exes announced in April they had quietly separated last year.

'After a long tennis match lasting over 20 years, we are finally putting our racquets down,' Isla captioned a photo of them wearing tennis gear.

'In 2023 we jointly filed to end our marriage. We have always prioritised our privacy and have been quietly working through this change.

'We forever share in our devotion and love for our children. We sincerely appreciate your respecting our family's wish for privacy.'
