The state of the market - no, not the share market but the real estate market - has become topical again after the recent Bali trip. A relocation to Bali - at least for part of the year - looks quite tempting but only if and when "Riverbend" is sold. Is "Riverbend" 's price of $2,000,000 still realistic in today's market?
There are seventeen waterfront properties down Sproxton Lane which is a cul-de-sac, at the end of which is "Riverbend". These seventeen properties are each less than 2000m² and on average 1500m² in land area, whereas "Riverbend" comprises close to 30,000m².
