Grong Grong is a small country town in the middle of NSW, I know because I've been through it a few times on the way to my sister's farm.
4 Grong Grong Toorak is the antitheses of Grong Grong NSW.
4 Grong Grong is a statement and a formidable one at that - from the moment you enter the court, just off Toorak Road, to the time you shut the door on the way out - its WOW.
This is development at its financial best on these type of one-off offerings. The owners have taken land bought in 2014 for early $2m's, ridden the market up-curve and added a home that looks right up there in price, for I imagine - a cost, considerably below that.
What the owner has got so right is the big picture - the block choice and price, the fascade, the form, the home-type, the proportions and flow and rooms - the garaging, the yard, the lift and much more - the dressing room is sensational and will grab your attention and encourage a female hand to sign. The offering big picture is above average.
Where the owner shows they are still learning the game, is attention to detail - if you are going to ask the price you are, then the finishes and the whole presentation needs to be a lot sharper.
The overseas market, if we are to accept the news coming out of China, has every chance of easing; so the remaining target market of strength, will be local or European and their detail is so, so important.
A vacuum, some paint touch ups, the marble cracks, the timber join over the bookshelf in the study, to name some - all do not match the first impressions you gain upon entry. Those "misses" in turn de-fog the rose coloured glasses a little, and so questions in your mind are encouraged.
Such as: Ok if these are the finishes - what is going on behind the walls and actually is $9m a match to this location or is the area another corner not cut, but trimmed.
I seriously like this home - but if I was to be the buyer, I would want an independent building inspection - a cast iron guarantee from the builder that the myriad of little details (some of which will cost - marble fixes) will be rectified (to my satisfaction) and then the price I will pay may well still be strong, but lower than what the courageous and overseas targeted "ask" is now.
It's a goodie in need of some adjustments.
