Kevin Sheedy has announced his unusual career move.
The AFL legend and former coach has joined forces with OBrien Real Estate to promote houses that are on sale.
The 76-year-old is currently spruiking a Richmond home listed on the market for $2.75million to $2.95million and expected to sell at auction this week.
He appears in a marketing video for the real estate group,discussing the virtues of the kitchen location at the property.
'Here I am in the beautiful kitchen and when I think about my own life,it's probably time I come back and start living within 6km of the GPO of Melbourne,' he says.
He also discusses the park nearby, Burnley Gardens.
'You'll rarely get the opportunity to get a property like this with a magnificent park outside to enjoy your relaxation,' Kevin says.
He added: 'You are five minutes from the city,the MCG is basically four-minutes away and of course Toorak Rd and South Yarra are 10 minutes south of this property'.
'Here I am in the beautiful kitchen and when I think about my own life,' he says
He also waxed lyrical about Melbourne landmarks including the wide smile at the Luna Park entrance,iconic running track The Tan,the Phillip Island Penguin Parade and the state's surprises to ensure its spark continues.
Sheedy played 251 VFL games and won three premierships for the Richmond Tigers before his 13-season career ended in 1979.
He then went on to win four premierships as long-serving coach of the Essendon Bombers before a two-year stint as inaugural coach of GWS Giants.
