Carlton star-turned-breakfast radio personality Brendan Fevola and his partner Alex are hoping their Hampton family home scores a $4.1m-$4.51m sale.
On Thursday, the couple put the five-bedroom house on the market about four years after buying it in 2021.
Fevola, who played for both the Blues and Brisbane Lions, was Carlton’s leading goal kicker from 2003 until 2009.

As an AFL player, he received a host of awards including the Allen Aylett Medal for being the Victorian team’s best player during the 2008 AFL Hall of Fame Tribute Match.
Following his AFL career, Fevola joined radio station Fox FM where he remains on air alongside Fifi Box and Nick Cody, hosting the popular morning show Fifi, Fev and Nic.
In 2016, Fevola won Network Ten’s I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! and he also competed in the The Masked Singer Australia’s 2023 season.
Alex, a photographer and the founder of Runway Room Cosmetics, was a contestant on the 2010 Dancing With The Stars TV show in which she placed third.
Public records show the Fevolas paid $3.1m when they bought the house.
Pressed metal and clerestory windows feature in the lounge room’s ceiling, a nod to the home’s Edwardian origins.

Following the purchase, Fev posted a photo on social media showing himself and Alex outside the home.
He tagged their four children in the post captioned, “New family home to make memories”.
At the time, Fevola told the Herald Sun his youngest daughter Tobi, then aged 2 years old, had clinched their decision to buy the abode.
“When we walked in, Tobi said, ‘This is my room’ – that did it for us,” Fevola said.
He and Alex have extensively renovated the Edwardian-era house during their time there.
Fredman’s Sarah Korbel, who has the listing alongside colleague Joel Fredman, declined to comment on the residence’s owners.
In 2021, Fevola posted about buying the house on Instagram, tagging his partner Alex and their children in the caption.
The home is set back from the road with established plants and trees dotted throughout the garden.
However, Ms Korbel said finding a renovated period home set on a 1200sq m block was a rarity in Hampton – let alone one with five bedrooms and three bathrooms.
“I think what families are going to love is the number of bathrooms, bedrooms and the fact that there are three separate living zones,” Ms Korbel said.
“They’ve (the owners) spent a lot of money in all the right places, they’ve created an exceptional and functional kitchen using the most high-end appliances, the sink, the tap ware and they’ve created a butler’s pantry.”
The new kitchen also features marble fittings and a Belling oven.
The kitchen as it looks today …
… and how it looked pre-renovation, when the Fevolas purchased in 2021.
“They have renovated bathrooms, they have installed herringbone timber floors throughout and they’ve done a lot of things that you won’t necessarily see, so things like wiring and plumbing and that sort of thing,” Ms Korbel added.
“There’s nothing left to do in the property – if someone wanted to do some further landscaping and put a pool in they could, but it’s just perfect for a large family.”
One of the living areas has an original fireplace and a high ceiling fitted with clerestory windows and pressed metal.
A rear living and dining space is warmed by a wood-burner fireplace and also has a built-in library.
On the ground floor there’s four bedrooms, one with an ensuite while another has a study area and playroom.

Upstairs is the main bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, spa ensuite with a skylight, sitting room, study area and balcony.
The location within walking distance to Hampton St, shops, Hampton and Sandringham train stations and the beach is another bonus.
“It’s exceptional family living for those people who want to be close to schools, because it is walking distance to all the best schools, Haileybury and St Leonard’s and all the primary schools that are in and around the area,” Ms Korbel said.
Expressions of interest for the home close at 5pm on September 1.
