Dame Jacinda Ardern's former Sandringham home has sold at a Ray White auction. The final price was negotiated privately after the property was withdrawn from public bidding.

The renovated four-bedroom, 1930s bungalow features a modern extension, multiple living areas, and a garden studio. The sale follows Ardern's move to Australia with her family. The new owners are reportedly "over the moon" to have purchased the home and are looking forward to moving into the area.
