We've been here before but, as they say, this time it's different! I've listed "Riverbend" for sale again on www.realestate.com.au and several other domains before it turns into a Deceased Estate Sale.

Most people call it Paradise. We have been calling it home for over thirty years. It's now time to move on and let somebody else pinch themselves every time they gaze out on the river and wonder how long it will take to believe this is really true. There are 8.1 billion people on earth and just about all of them are not as lucky as you if you decide to buy "Riverbend". Fathom that platitude. Wake up! It is today, for tomorrow actually never comes, anyway not here at "Riverbend" which has a massive two-storey brick residence set in parkland larger than all the other waterfront properties COMBINED. This truly unique property consists of eight parcels of land, totalling some seven acres on eight separate freehold titles and for sale as one lot. The smallest block is 3313m and the largest 3700m. The blocks are strung out like a necklace along the banks of the Clyde River with over 300 metres of absolute waterfront to highwater mark. Absolute waterfront - no public access! Enjoy sailing, swimming, and fishing at your doorstep! The land is mostly level and takes in an entire bend of the river. Located at the end of a very quiet cul-de-sac, the sense of peace and tranquillity is absolute: no traffic, no noise, no neighbours (our only neighbour is the peaceful river!), never to be built out, and yet with all the amenities of suburban living: bitumen road, mail delivery, garbage collection, high-speed NBN, and, from the end of this year, town water and sewerage (get set before land values go through the roof!) You have to live somewhere - it may as well be Paradise! As for the price, most residential properties sell at a price ratio of 75% for the house and 25% for the land; "Riverbend" has an inverse ratio of 25% for the house and 75% for the land (1 July 2022 Valuer-General's Land Valuation $2,637,000) because, as you know what they say about land, "They don't make any more!", and "Riverbend" sits on a unique seven-acre parcel of residential absolute waterfront land, totally private, totally secluded, and yet on the edge of suburbia and only 8 km from Batemans Bay.

It may not happen for a long time, maybe not until Australia has taken delivery of its nuclear-powered submarines - or, to use an adynaton (how those years spent in Greece are paying off), "When pigs can fly!"
P.S. Remember all those 'too-good-to-be-true' offers which state in small print "Conditions apply"? We have our own "Conditions apply"- click here.
