Wanted to import the discussion about this address from the other place.

https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-toorak-146320444

It's super nice but no way it's worth $50M+ right? It's not even in the part of the Yarra where you could go for a swim.

In the description...

"a wonderful sense of understated opulence". Err that's not understated.

Whilst I like to see what crazy houses bigly huge money can get you.. you'd need an army of people for the upkeep with something like that.

That doesn't look like a home to me.

The entry is so grey and dull. The terrace though with the pool, wow. And all those windows.

Just Googled most expensive house sale in Melbourne, $52m. This is a nice house overall but most expensive ever in Melbourne? I dunno.

I think they went too "safe" with the colour scheme since this was renovated for sale. The grey is a bad choice.

Little bit exorbitant innit? I like the tucked away privacy parts of it but imagine trying to clean it. Or get from one side to the other, not to mention stairs.

Also I could never afford that and don’t think anything should cost that much. If I could afford it I’d probably take somewhere more modest and help others out with the remainder

Or rent rooms out cheap to friends
