The multi-million-dollar house once owned by former Auckland eye surgeon, Philip Polkinghorne, is for sale.
Polkinghorne was found not guilty last year of murdering his wife Pauline Hanna, after she was found dead in their Remuera home in 2021.
The trial lasted eight weeks and heard from 80 witnesses before the verdict was delivered.
Crown prosecutors said Polkinghorne murdered Hanna and staged the scene as a suicide due to a combination of financial problems, infidelity and drug use.
The defence argued Hanna took her own life after struggling with depression for many years.
