Friday dreaming ...

I've always loved real estate (it must be because I grew up in Sydney, plus its Sydneyites favourite past time!) and browsing through the local rag ... I stumbled across this beauty.

Her facade immediately caught my attention ... isn't she beautiful! She is a very rare detached period home that has been converted into three substantial flats ... with an opportunity to convert back to a single dwelling.

She's not exactly in the area we live in ... but not very far ... the only problem is the price tag.
Guide price £13,000,000
Well as I said ... one can only dream ... and what a way to end the working week!

Happy Weekend!

  4. HI Marina!!!
    ooops... won't be buying that too soon.. and a shame as I'm looking!! Actually you are right.. we are all obsessed with the realestate section.. although strangely .. since i got serious about it.. i stopped looking!! possibly as the 'yes I'll take it' ones weren't in my price range either.. you know the prices have gone right up again.. Should have bought last year!! Oh well.. ciao ciao xx Julie
