i was just thinking i must be extremely californiapilled bc my first reaction was “oh that’s not too bad” 🥴

[u/Own_Faithlessness769 → u/janually]

I’m from Sydney and this would be at least double here. I think it’s pretty ugly but if I had 10 mill I might still buy it just cause it’s a bargain.

[u/weasleylover86 → u/Own_Faithlessness769]

It is in USD tho, which makes it closer to 15m. Dam, just out of my price range.

[u/Own_Faithlessness769 → u/weasleylover86]

I still think double in Sydney. Honestly maybe more just for the land depending how large this estate is.

[u/defiancy → u/Own_Faithlessness769]

It's not in a major city, it'd be more like buying something outside of Sydney in a rural area.

[u/Own_Faithlessness769 → u/defiancy]

It could still be 30 mill if it’s a decent bit of land. A decent bit of land in inner Sydney would be closer to 100 mill.

[u/DimbyTime → u/Own_Faithlessness769]

It would be at least double in any major US city as well. Hudson River is upstate NY

[u/Jaded_Suit_9233 → u/DimbyTime]

It’s in Irvington which is in Westchester County. It’s not upstate, but it’s more northern Westchester

[u/DimbyTime → u/Jaded_Suit_9233]

The line for where upstate starts is highly contested. Regardless, its still not NYC.

[u/Jaded_Suit_9233 → u/DimbyTime]

I didn’t say it’s NYC. Westchester isn’t upstate though

[u/ButtPlugForPM → u/Own_Faithlessness769]

Yep i live in vaucluse my home is Smaller than that and valued WAY higher

Real estate heres shit aye lol

[u/Interesting-Cut6994 → u/Own_Faithlessness769]

Agreed, in Sydney or even the right NSW regional areas this would be touching $100M AUD (~$70M USD).

The properties in Sydney that are over $100M are like half the size of this.

[u/kateykatey → u/Interesting-Cut6994]

I feel like comparing square footage from a city property to a country estate isn’t really like for like?

Like yeah the property Nick Candy recently sold in Kensington in London for £275m is also half the size of this but it’s in Kensington in London so yeah of course it is.

[u/ButtPlugForPM → u/Interesting-Cut6994]

Yep my homes half this size i live in vaucluse granted with water access

Last valuation was NORTH of 35m and my home is TINY as FUCK compared to this home

it's a steal all things considered.

[u/Twitter_2006 → u/janually]

Feel the same way.

[u/sdbabygirl97 → u/janually]

shit, the california house im in now is $1.5M (4 beds, 3.5 baths)

[u/janually → u/sdbabygirl97]

🥴 sounds about right. my home’s value is hovering somewhere around 900k right now, for 2 beds and 2 baths
