After a Christmas Day announcement that Barty and Kissick were expecting their second child, the couple decided to sell the Melbourne bolthole.
The 68A Nicholson Street property has been renovated by Barty and features three bedrooms, two bathrooms and off-street parking.
The interior is clean and white with European Oak floors and plantation shutters.
A new kitchen features Fisher & Paykel appliances and enjoys a prime north-facing position.

The sale is being managed by agents Nathan Waterson, Lily Keating and Michael Armstrong from Jellis Craig Stonnington with an auction scheduled for March 1.
The townhouse is close to cafes, shops, restaurants, and multiple public transport options.
It is zoned for popular local schools, including South Yarra Primary School, and close to many private secondary schools.
During her career, Barty was ranked No.1 for women’s singles and No.5 for doubles. She has won the French open, Wimbledon and the Australian Open.
