Accomplished actor Aimèe Horne, best known for portrayal as Polly in the Australian tour of British comedy Fawlty Towers Live, has bought her first Sydney home.
She has snapped up a freestanding Leichhardt home (pictured above) for $980,000 before its scheduled auction.
It looks to be a savvy purchase with the home having traded for $960,000 three years ago.
The 1890s cottage has two bedrooms, attic storeroom, and separate living and dining areas with polished floors.
There's a renovated kitchen complete with cafe-style alfresco breakfast bar in the rear private outdoor entertaining area.
Hudson McHugh Leichhardt agent James Price sold the home.
The Adelaide-born actor has starred in productions for the Sydney Theatre Company, Company B and Griffin Theatre, was praised by the British funny man John Cleese in 2016.
