Ray White Gladstone Park listing agent Lachie Kennedy said the auction opened with a vendor bid of $850,000. From there, two parties joined in and slowly pushed the price up to $920,000, where it was passed in.

The buyers, a young couple from Tullamarine, offered up an extra $20,000 during post-auction negotiations and purchased the home for $940,000.

Kennedy said this was the first time the four-bedroom home had been on the market since the original owners built the property in 1959.
