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 The final price was negotiated privately after the property was withdrawn from public bidding.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 new owners were reportedly "over the moon" with their purchase.

The renovated four-bedroom, 1930s bungalow attracted strong interest from families, featuring a modern extension, multiple living spaces, and a garden studio. The sale follows the former Prime Minister's move to Australia earlier this year.
