“He’s gone all out, completely gutting the apartment—new electrics, ceilings, cornices—everything is brand new,” says Jason Boon, the Richardson & Wrench Elizabeth Bay agent, who has listed the property with a guide price of $8.5 million to $9 million in an expressions of interest campaign.

Cohen, who also appears on Amazon’s Luxe Listings Sydney, invested $1.85 million in the renovation.

Shortly after acquiring the 180sqm apartment, which spans 300sqm including the courtyard, Cohen enlisted Interior Architecture Practice Studiojos and Jack Freeman, founder of Freeman Gallery, to spearhead the transformation.
