Look at moy! Look at moy! The two-storey four-bedroom Patterson Lakes house made famous in the hit comedy series Kath & Kim is up for sale.

The property at 4 Lagoon Place, where the cult TV classic was filmed, has an asking price of $1.3 million-plus through Ray White after it failed to sell with another agency last year.

Along with many of the same features seen in the show, the house occupied by Kath Day-Knight and her metrosexual butcher husband Kel also has waterfront access, a boat mooring and a “highly desirable master suite fit for a ‘foxy lady’,” according to the agents.

An added bonus for potential buyers is that a tall fence that was erected during filming has now been removed – allowing uninterrupted water views and direct access to a private beached area and jetty.

Agent Stephen Hill told News Corp the house was ideal for families.

“Aside from its history, this really is a wonderful home. There are both formal and casual living spaces, and alfresco patio overlooking the water and plenty of room for a growing family,” he said.

Kath & Kim was created by Jane Turner and Gina Riley and spanned four seasons and a feature film.

The Melbourne property was sold in 2014 for $1.3 million. Last year, it failed to sell after more than 200 days on the market.

Auction clearances rose to their highest level this year across Australia.

The national average rate clearance hit 80.2 per cent, up from 76. 2 per cent last week, CoreLogic’s preliminary numbers showed.

In Sydney, the success rate rose to 85.6 per cent from 81.4 per cent last week as the number of spring auctions fell to 866 from 913.

Melbourne clearances increased too from 77.7 per cent to 81.8 per cent, while its auction numbers rose, to 1378 from 1182 last week given the push forward from the pending spring racing carnival distraction.

While listing numbers typically head higher the deeper into the spring selling season, this year they remain stubbornly weak.

Every capital city except Canberra had less weekend auction stock than a year ago.

Every capital city recorded a preliminary clearance higher than a year ago.

CoreLogic’s Kevin Brogan noted the 2641 auctions scheduled for the week to Saturday was 16 per cent below the 3143 of the same weekend last October. 

In Melbourne, 81.8 per cent of the 1229 reported auctions sold this week.

“This is the second time this month the clearance rate for Melbourne has been above 80 per cent,” Mr Brogan said.

Melbourne’s top sale was a Hawthorn house. The double-fronted 1890s Hawthorn Grove house, Brehon, fetched $5.02 million. 

It was listed by Jellis Craig with $4 million-plus price guidance, then selling well above the $4.3 million reserve price set for the deceased estate which is one of the last unrenovated properties on the street.

A West Footscray apartment scored the nation’s cheapest sale when a one-bedroom unit sold for $200,000.

It was just $10,000 higher than its $190,000 sale in 2012. The apartment had most recently been a $250 a week rental.

In Sydney, 866 auctions were held this week, down from 913 over the previous week.

“The preliminary clearance rate of 85.6 per cent is the highest recorded for the year to date,” Mr Brogan said.

Since the beginning of spring Sydney’s clearance rate has remained above 78 per cent.

The 85.6 per cent success rate sits significantly higher than this time last year, when a clearance rate of 61.3 per cent was recorded across 1024 auctions.

Sydney’s top sale was a riverfront mansion which sold for $8.3 million at Tennyson Point, smashing its $7 million reserve.

Selling agent Matthew Ward said four registered bidders competed to own the home, which was built eight years ago.
