Homeowners risk profit selling off-market
Sydney's skinniest house, owned by multi-millionaire Fiona Brown, has sold for $15.5 million.
The Dicker Data co-founder will make a mammoth profit from the property, which she purchased in 2014 for $6.34 million, according to realestate.com.au.
The famous four-storey home is just six metres wide, but boasts spectacular views of the Sydney Harbour from the affluent neighbourhood of Darling Point.

With four bedrooms, three bathrooms, its own pool and private beach, the home went for sale on Saturday with Ray White Eastern Beaches agent Benjamin Goodwin, with a guide of $15.5 million.
The home briefly entered the market in 2018 but no guide was listed.
It was owned by Lady Susan Renouf between 1994 and 1997 and purchased for $2.9 million by Melbourne socialite Dianne Allen.

The home changed hands again in 2009, being bought by a Melbourne-based landscaper for $6.15 million before it was snapped up by Ms Brown in 2014.
Dicker Data founder and CEO David Dicker, Ms Brown's ex husband, fled Australia for Dubai after becoming fed up with living in an "authoritarian s**thole".
'No one rated the western suburbs then'

He famously withdrew $42 million worth of shares in September because he wanted to buy jets, fast cars and US stocks.
These days, a large part of Mr Dicker's focus is his passion project as the founder of emerging hi-tech, high-performance car developer, Rodin Cars.
