A rotting villa transformed into a Grey Lynn masterpiece sold for $2.825 million, the Herald can finally reveal.

The 120-year-old settler's cottage on Leighton St in the Auckland city suburb went under the hammer in March but failed to sell despite a $2.5 million bid.

The house sold later that week but the real estate agents refused to say how much for and who the buyers were.

That price is pretty insane considering the state it was in! Location, location, location...

Check out the before & after pictures of the re-vamp!
