Australia Real Estate: Prestigious Mansions In The Land Down Under You Shouldn't Miss

Australia is a skyrocketing continent and we could not agree more to that. Knowing this is what probably enticed foreigners to emigrate, not to mention its Aussie dollars.

Are you one of those planning to move out from your comfort zone and settle in a more comfortable place? Australia is a good pick.

Australian News features a short-list of prestigious mansion you can find in the land down under:

Mansion 1: 550 New South Head Rd, Point Piper

This $70- to $100-million mansion has been out in the market since 2013. This was last sold for £2,100 in 1911.

Dubbed as "Elaine," this seven-bathroom, seven-bedroom mansion has 700 square meters of waterfront land which happens to be the largest private patches in the exclusive eastern suburbs of Sydney, Australia.  With the four generations of Fairfax publishing family occupying the big house since 1911, some of the buildings built in 1870 are most likely in need of proper renovation. This will quite cost another million but rest assured Elaine Mansion is for keeps.

Mansion 2: 20 Linlithgow Rd, Toorak 

At $15 million, you can already purchase this four-bedroom mansion designed by Stephen Jolson.

The mansion features heated bluestone floors, indoor lap pool, a kitchen with a scullery, a gym, an indoor lap pool that is 20-meter wide, and a rooftop terrace. As described in realestate.com.au, the three-level, 2010 award-winning house has a contemporary and commanding presence. This mansion was last sold in 2005 for $3.12 million and has been out in the market for 448 days already.

Mansion 3: 5 Willsmere Rd., Kew

This $7 million mansion had been featured in 1913 in the Home & Garden Beautiful magazine because of its artistic design. This has become more sought-after as its artistic design becomes more and more appealing. It has oak panelling, open fireplaces, leadlighting, and a temperature-controlled wine cellar. Security is even more observed in this mansion so there's nothing to worry about people breaking in. As listed in realestate.com.au, this house has 11 bedrooms, six bathrooms, and a garage that can fit four cars.

This was last bought in 1985 at $539,000 and is being displayed in the real estate market for 162 days already.
