Inside Channel Nine star Livinia Nixon's impressive property portfolio as she sells her Brighton family home for a whopping $9.1 million

Television presenter Livinia Nixon and her husband Alistair Jack have quietly secured a multimillion-dollar windfall after selling their sprawling Melbourne family home for $9.1 million.

Property records show the Brighton property changed hands in June, ending the couple's 13-year ownership of the blue-chip property.

Nixon, 51, purchased the home for $4.6 million in 2013, meaning the sale netted the family a $4.5 million profit, more than doubling their original investment.

Set on a sprawling 1,630-square-metre corner block, the landmark residence is tucked away behind stunning gardens centred around a century-old pin oak tree.

During their ownership, the property was transformed into a luxurious family retreat, with a contemporary extension adding expansive living spaces and seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining.

The home features four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a home office, a separate rumpus and study area for children, plus a dedicated movie and games room, which was perfect for their two sons, Henry, 16, and Ted, 13.

At the heart of the home is a six-metre kitchen island complete with a butler's pantry, while floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the landscaped gardens.

The outdoor amenities are equally impressive, boasting a solar-heated swimming pool, gas-heated spa, sauna, poolside gym and barbecue area.

The listing described the property as: 'This magnificent c. 1891 residence is a home of captivating beauty and enduring elegance set in a breathtaking botanical garden.'

'The landmark property is an offering that promises families an extraordinary lifestyle of prestige, privacy and perfection in a coveted blue-chip locale.'

The property was sold for the massive sum after four months on the market.

Before making Brighton her home, Nixon sold her Middle Park terrace in 2015 for $2.35 million after purchasing it a decade earlier for $1.853 million.

Nixon became one of Australian television's most recognisable faces during her long tenure as Nine News Melbourne's chief weather presenter.

She stepped away from the role in late 2025 so she could fully focus on her hosting duties on Getaway and Postcards.

Nixon made headlines in 2020 when she revealed that she hid from her own children in the laundry room to 'have some space' during the COVID-19 lockdowns. 

In a blog for nine.com.au, she explained that while some moments during the pandemic 'were delightful', others ended in tears.

'We've all coped differently and we've all managed the stress in different ways,' she wrote.

'Some moments were delightful (cooking with the kids, lying in the park and watching the clouds drift by).

'Other days involved hiding in the laundry to have some space, or watching my kids cry after telling them that after months of confinement, the lockdown was to be extended.'

The familiar TV face first appeared on screens 47 years ago.

Speaking to Herald Sun of her long-standing career, she said it all started with an advert.

'I was four when I first appeared on camera. I was the Granny Davis (bread) girl,' she told the publication.

She went on to reveal that a friend of her family's was the director and when one of the girls who had been cast for the commercial got sick, she was called in as a last-minute replacement.
