NRL legend Sam Burgess is selling a home deep in the heart of South Sydney territory that he has owned for five years.
South Sydney Rabbitohs legend Sam Burgess has his Little Bay coastal investment apartment listed with $1.2 million guidance.
The top-floor apartment has ocean views.
NG Farah’s Martin Farah and Steve Ausling have the Cawood Ave listing, with a March 25 auction planned.
The living, kitchen and dining spaces are central to the apartment, flanked by two bedrooms. The living space, and a bedroom, open to a northeast balcony.
Apparently Burgess wants to sell to buy something with more space.

He bought in 2015 at the off-the-plan launch of the Illume development along with two of his three brothers.
Tom, who is still with the Bunnies, and George, who has recently retired from rugby, bought apartments, but have since sold.
Sam paid $955,000 for his 107sq m apartment, which was settled on its 2018 completion.
George was the first brother to sell. He sold for $1.35 million in 2018, shortly after settlement, having paid the same price three years earlier.
Tom owned two apartments in the block, selling the first for $992,500 in 2020, some $7500 less than the $1 million he spent off the plan five years earlier.

Tom’s large three-bedroom apartment then sold for $1.55 million, $100,000 better than he was asking and nearly $150,000 more than the $1.405 million he paid.
The close-knit brothers have the 4B fashion business.
Little Bay two-bedroom apartments have a $1.3 million median price, up 2.8 per cent over the past year, according to realestate.com.au.
