Kirribilli House: OPEN FOR INSPECTION sorry OPEN FOR ELECTION

Impressive waterfront views! Poised on the top of a hill and the envy of
many onlookers, this two storey house is a residence of power. Far superior
to any old Lodge in Canberra, this house fits a family of five and provides
the ultimate abode in which to be relaxed and comfortable.
* Breathtaking views of Sydney's beautiful harbour
* Perfect place to view Sydney's fireworks - especially during events like
the APEC long weekend
* Ideal for extra-curricular fundraising activities
* Includes a $200 000 set of executive chairs (not from IKEA!)
* Plans for $500 000+ renovation of the dining room to re-enact the
predicted last supper
* Uses 28 times more water than the average Sydney household –
one of few properties that can be credited for creating its own mini-drought
* Current occupant considering a move even if a new lease is signed
* A million dollar garden ($1 118 000 million over 6 years) with no worms
(well not the kind that gets turned of mid-debate during 60 minutes)
* Recently received a $386 500 security upgrade that unfortunately
doesn’t stop fireball wielding psychos
* Price negotiable just like your Work Choices employment contract… NOT
* Neighbours you know and trust – ‘you can't help but love Maxine’
The Lodge: Live centre stage in Canberra!
You can’t go past this bargain in the nation’s capital. It’s not often an opportunity
like this comes along. While it doesn’t have the sweeping harbour views of
Kirribilli House, you’ll also be at home in this residence of power.
* Owner selling off assets in an effort to go out with a bang
* Tried twice before to evict the current tenant and its looking like
it’s third time lucky
* Long-term occupancy available (depending on your accountant's or
treasurer's plans)
* Needs a good clean and the lawn mowed: tenant barely there
* Recently refurbished reception areas
* Trying to save $7500 of tax payer funds for every flight between
Canberra and Sydney and another $7500 for a VIP jet to return empty
* Dial-up internet access only – ‘broadband is just a fad’ – two hours to
download a YouTube clip is not a big ask, is it?
* Neighbours you know and trust – ‘as if’
Act now, it’s only a matter of time before interest rates go up again… and
again… and maybe even again. Particularly given there is a greater chance
of Australia signing the Kyoto protocol or saying ‘sorry’ than housing ever
being affordable in this lifetime.

John might still need it for another four years yet, Colin. You wouldn't want to see John homeless, would you? Longest serving PMs ever have to live somewhere, after all. :)

Is this about politics or about houses? Why is Australia selling a house? I like the look of it - I can get a mortgage of about £25,000 which is about AUS $ 750,000 isn't it?

Good advice for Kevin, i.e. don't f--k it up now.

Lord James-River said...

Tomorrow will tell.

Hi Colin,
Did you know that the images have disappeared from this post? It has been nominated for the round-up, so is included there. The first image of the house has been changed on the website so that's why it's gone. I can't remember what the others were.

Don't you love those little remainder square boxes taunting you when your images disappear. I'm all too familiar with it myself.

I have included the new sold image within the round-up post, so it's not a complete disaster.
