A home near Noosa has fetched the highest national price at auction on Saturday after buyers from across the globe spent just 20 minutes pushing the price up to a record-smashing $9.025 million – blowing the minds of its owners and onlookers.
After six registered bidders raised their paddles for the four-bedroom, three-level prize on the day – a NSW buyer was forced to break a non-beachfront suburb record to snatch the keys.
8 Stevens Street, Sunshine Beach.
The property, at 8 Stevens Street, Sunshine Beach, last sold as a 512-square-metre vacant block for $1.75 million in August 2017, having sat on the market for a mammoth 968 days.
A ramshackle and potentially hazardous home just minutes away from mining magnate Gina Rinehart s mansion has sold for a staggering $2million.
The three-bedroom home on Philip Street, in Hawthorne, Brisbane, was snapped up in an electrifying auction on Saturday, deemed one of the city s hottest of the year.
The home, which sits on top of a hill, has sweeping city views, is just a block back from the riverfront and a short drive away from shops and restaurants in the CBD.
However, the decrepit property s front stairs have completely fallen off and simply standing on the rickety balcony risks serious injury.
The heirs of this crumbling deceased estate have seen offers knocked back for decades, but when the stairs fell off it was finally time to go to auction.
