Outback Wrangler star Matt Wright and his influencer wife Kaia are selling their Northern Territory home.
The couple are asking for expressions of interest for their beautiful four-bedroom, three-bathroom property without a price guide.
Located 30km from Darwin and positioned in leafy surrounds on three hectares of land, Wright also keeps his aircrafts on the property.
According to NT News, neighbours have complained about noise from helicopters landing on the site.
Wright fought a legal battle after complaints were lodged in 2021, which he subsequently lost.
The National Geographic star is now banned from using his home base as a 'landing pad'.

The Wright's have reportedly splashed out on the 41-year-old home, making significant 'architectural' alterations in the last few years.
The makeover included installing a fresh irrigation system and new fencing, as well as new bathrooms.
Built in 1984, the stylish two-level home features glass walls, vaulted ceilings and a spacious open plan design.
Features include genuine brass door handles, bronze wall lights and Taj Mahal stone bench tops.
There's also polished concrete floors, Italian Murano glass fittings, a timber deck and a self-contained ground floor unit.
Also included as part of the sale are architect-designed plans for an extension and an outdoor entertainment area and a pool.
Wright's decision to put his home under the hammer comes ahead of a scheduled appearance at the Darwin Supreme Court (DSC) on July 7 on a charge of attempting to pervert the course of justice after a helicopter crash killed his friend and co-star Chris 'Willow' Wilson in 2022.
In August 2024, Daily Mail Australia reported that Wright's barrister Frank Marenda told the DSC that the reality star would intending to plea not guilty to the charge.

Wright has since vowed to fight the charge.
'Today I informed the court I will be pleading not guilty,' he told the Daily Telegraph at the time.
'I’m committed to clearing my name and look forward to this happening and this s*** fight being over so we can all move forward and be able to properly honour Willow’s legacy.'
His barrister estimated the trial would last for three months following discussions between Wright's instructing solicitors and Crown prosecutor Steve Ledek, the NT News reported.
'Of course we'll continue to confer but the position is, ultimately, that this matter will go to trial,' Mr Marenda said.
In December 2023, Wright was committed to stand trial on the single charge of attempting to pervert the course of justice, with an additional six charges remaining before the Local Court.
The charge of attempting to pervert the course of justice is related to circumstances that allegedly took place following the helicopter crash in West Arnhem Land, which killed Mr Wilson and seriously injured pilot Sebastian Robinson.
The other charges include one count of menacing or intimidating chopper pilot Sebastian Robinson, one count of making a false declaration, one count of fabricating evidence, one count of destroying evidence and two counts of unlawful entry.
Wright is yet to enter pleas to the other charges, however in a statement released at the time, he said he was 'hopeful the remaining charges will all be withdrawn once this charge is dealt with'.
Following the helicopter crash in 2022, Wright and his pilot Michael Burbidge were allegedly first on the scene, with former NT police officer Neil Mellon.
The three were later charged over their alleged actions following the crash.
Burbidge was fined $15,000 after he pleaded guilty to destruction of evidence, for disposing of Mr Wilson’s phone.
Mellon was sentenced to eight months behind bars after pleading guilty to offences including, six counts of disclosing confidential information, destroying evidence and obtaining a benefit by deception.
Charges against both men of attempting to pervert the course of justice were withdrawn.
Wright has consistently denied all allegations against him.
