The property is currently a three bedroom single-storey rendered semi with front sunroom under a pitched tile roof. Their nifty renovation plans included adding a second storey, installing a rear pool, and improving its basement usage.<\/p>\n

\"Plenty<\/div>\n

Plenty of scope for renovation here.<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

It includes retention of the existing double garage but with construction of an internal passageway to enable access via a lift.<\/p>\n

The couple bought the 1910 semi on 280sq m for $3.05 million in May, 2021.<\/p>\n

It was in February 2021 when they put their prior property, a French-inspired Bondi Beach home to auction, selling in mid-March for $3.8 million after having had a $3.6\u00a0million vendor bid.<\/p>\n

The four-bedroom, three-bathroom, semi-\u00addetached Simpson St address, was close to New South Head Rd.<\/p>\n

It was 2015 when they married at St Joan of Arc in South Australia\u2019s Victor Harbor followed by a reception at Port Elliot\u2019s Waverley Estate.<\/p>\n

Their first home in Sydney was an apartment in Bellevue Hill which cost $840,000 in 2014.<\/p>\n

They sold it to industry colleague Matt Doran in 2017 at $1,385,000. Doran unsuccessfully tried to sell it this year.<\/p>\n

Hart left television reporting after 17 years in October last year to become the government relations manager at Transurban.<\/p>\n

He had begun at Channel 10 Adelaide in 2005.<\/p>\n

Jayes, who grew up at Cronulla, was last in the news herself when she was the face of pandemic self-isolation in June last year after she was deemed a close contact following a visit to the Joh Bailey hairdressing salon in Double Bay.<\/p>\n
