Former Prime Minister Dame Jacinda Ardern's Sandringham home has successfully sold. The four-bedroom, 1930s bungalow was handled by real estate agency Ray White.

The property was withdrawn during its auction, and the final sale was completed through a private negotiation with the highest bidder. The sale follows Ardern's move to Australia. The renovated home, known for its modern extension and garden studio, attracted strong interest from families, with the new buyers reportedly "over the moon".
