Core Logic shows Mr Willesee, who it was recently revealed has been responding well to treatment for a cancer in his throat, had paid $1,575,000 for the two-bedroom, two-bathroom 220sq m apartment at 2/8 Francis Street in 2011.

The unit is part of a boutique block of six.

The property was described as “an oasis of peace and privacy” in the listing and the architect-designed building is just a short walk from Bondi Beach.

It features a combination of exposed concrete, stone, timber and glass as well as expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and living space flows through glass doors onto a north-facing, level timber deck bordered by tall tropical trees, which provides privacy.

One of the bedrooms leads onto its own private outdoor atrium.

There are two marble-tiled bathrooms; the kitchen has Gaggenau appliances and there are heated limestone floors.
