A harbourside apartment adorned with nautical decorations and prime water views is set to go under the hammer later this month.

The one bedroom, one bathroom apartment at 4/120 Blues Point Rd, McMahons Point had been purchased last year by Sydney advertising icon Susie Henry.

Ms Henry joined Leo Burnett in 1985 and was a personal assistant to the CEO, the chairman and the CFO, before taking on the front of house receptionist role.

“She wasn’t an award-winning creative or a CEO. She was the iconic receptionist at Leo Burnett for almost 40 years. She was a gift,” the company wrote in a LinkedIn post at the time of her death.

“They don’t make them like Susie Henry anymore. We’ll have a bucket of wine for you real soon special lady.”

Available with a $1m price guide, the walls and ceilings of the apartment depict Australia’s flora, fauna and aquatic life as well as an array of handpainted embellishments.

“Buyers are invited to move in and enjoy the quirky decor, or renovate with their own personal touches to make the most of the apartment’s potential for the ultimate harbourside pad.”

Ms Henry had owned the apartment since September 2021.
