A new year calls for a new headline, "Selling 15% below Valuer-General's valuation (which is already three years old)". That should bring in the bargain hunters. Come and get it!
Here's the full text of the advertisement:
(which is already three years old)"
"Already more than three years ago, the Valuer-General's valuation of the LAND ALONE was $2,637,000 (and with sewerage and town water now connected, land values can go only one way: UP). Add to this the insured value of $990,000 for the massive two-storey brick residence and all the many other improvements, and you arrive at a total of $3,627,000. At just a touch over three million dollars, you'd be buying this wonderful lifestyle property at just about land value - and you know what they say about land, don't you? "They don't make any more!"
With sewerage and town water now connected, excellent NBN services, postal delivery, and weekly garbage collection, you have all the big-city amenities, with none of the drawbacks, like the foul air, the loud noises, the horrible traffic jams, and the busy neighbours. At "Riverbend" you only have ONE neighbour: the peacefully flowing Clyde River.
This one-of-a-kind absolute waterfront freehold property set in parkland totalling some seven acres stretches for over 400 metres along the Clyde River offers serenity and tranquillity by the bucketload. Located on the edge of the historic town of Nelligen, "Riverbend" is a private paradise only ten minutes away from the bustling resort town of Batemans Bay.
After owning this incredible property for over thirty years, the present owners are ready to say their final goodbyes in the hope that it will attract a buyer who will also treasure this slice of paradise. "It's a place of true beauty and discovery, and for making new magical memories, and we will absolutely miss it for many reasons", they say, but old age is forcing them to downsize. "We now wish to pass this little slice of paradise onto someone else to enjoy this incredible lifestyle."
Valuation and price aside, what the property is really all about is location, location, location! The tranquillity, the absolute privacy and beauty of the river draw you to it. If you are looking for an idyllic lifestyle where the only alarm clock in the morning is a bunch of kookaburras, where you can sit on a huge verandah overlooking the river and watch amazing sunsets, and where you are serenaded to sleep at night by the sound of frogs, you will love it here. If you thought that it was no longer possible to find paradise on earth, think again!"
Now go and form an orderly queue.
