The five-bedroom house was built in the 1880s and was redesigned by Professor Leslie Wilkinson in the 1930s.
It had been held by the Spender family since 1949, when it was bought by Sir Percy Spender.
John Spender, QC, moved into the home in 1985 when he was a Member of the House of Representatives for North Sydney.
It was a family home for John Spender and Zampatti, and was first listed in 2012, two years after their divorce.

At that time, it attracted the interest of actor Russell Crowe and had a price guide of about $15 million.
Mr Malouf did not give a direct price guide when he listed the property in March this year, stating only that it was expected to attract a price in the “double-digit millionsâ€.
