Would you pay $7.95 million for a house?
A renovated 742 square-metre home in Thorndon is likely to set a new record for Wellington –it’s the most expensive house to ever come on the market in the city.
Special features of the five-bedroom, five-bathroom house include a large, traditionally styled conservatory that overlooks a grass tennis court. The family living areas also open out to the tennis court and an expansive outdoor living area.
CoreLogic confirmed $7.95 million is the highest asking price ever asked for a home in Wellington. The previous record is a sale earlier this year was of a house in Clive Road that fetched $5.75 million.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
