Robin Bailey pocketed a tidy $450,000 in profit recently when she sold her Fig Tree Pocket waterfront home for an eye-watering $1.6million.
The KIIS 97.3FM star, 53, finally agreed to the massive deal in November after initially listing the Brisbane house for sale in March last year, reported realestate.com.au on Thursday.
After being forced to swap real estate agents and re-list in October, the radio host is now sitting pretty on the pile of cash earned from the five bedroom property.
She sold the home through Ray White Paddington after initially snapping it up in 2015 for $1.15million.
Real estate agent Mathew Abboud described the property as a ‘warm and inviting family home’ which offered a tranquil atmosphere and modern living.

With multiple indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces alongside a fully self-contained guesthouse, the new owners won’t want for space.
The Brisbane River views and in-ground pool were also attractive selling points which helped Robin land her eye-watering profit.
Initially, Robin purchased the home following the tragic death of her first husband Tony Smart, who died by suicide after a long battle with depression.

Tragedy struck again in 2019 when Robin lost her second husband, Sean Pickwell, who died of cancer in September that year.
Following the heartbreak, Robin sold her $500,000 home and embarked on a soul-searching trip to India with her three sons, who she shared with her first husband.
She regularly posted pictures of the family as she worked on reminding her boys ‘how lucky they are’.

‘I want us to taste, smell, touch and feel things that challenge us,’ she wrote on the day they set off to India.
The family visited temples and mosques to experience the different cultures in India.
On the second day, they visited a Sikh temple which helps feed 70,000 people and a market with cheap fake designer products before having lunch.
