I can see it from my balcony. It’s an amazing place. The four blocks of land to purchase it would have cost close to $20m. In 2016 it was voted the best house in Australia.

Luxury-plus home named the nation’s best

NSW: It has seven bedrooms, 20-car garage, two-lane bowling alley and private beach. It was named house of...

Owned by the family that used to own Shelley’s drinks and now the developers of the app called Deputy, a staff rostering app.

They are staying in the area and building a smaller waterfront because the kids have left the nest.

I’d estimate that it would have cost at least $30m to build.

He’s a dot com squillionaire.

Dealing with tasks like sick leave and salaries gave Ashik and Steve an idea for a business. Now the likes of Qantas and McDonalds are clients.

Don’t tell my Mrs but I don’t think I can ever leave the Sutherland Shire. It’s just too peaceful. I may just achieve common ground and buy an apartment near you @Gronk and have the best of both worlds.

Why don't you get a place in Katoomba or Blackheath and make it a retreat for yourself. Bondi wouldn't be much different to where you are now. Water, people,cafes,bars.
