Queensland’s own The White House is under offer, with the US version expected to have its own landlord installed within days.
While all eyes have been on the US presidential election, Crafted Property agents Philip Resnikoff and Ulises Vasquez have quietly set a suburb record for a Brisbane property dubbed The White House in Forestdale.
“It sold two days before auction,” Mr Resnikoff said, adding that no, Harris and Trump were not among the buyers looking for a plan B.
“We had about 85 groups through and it was bought by a local family.
Mr Resnikoff said the sprawling property attracted a lot of interest from “multi-cultural families”.
It is understood it sold for $2.123m – the first comparable home to break through the $2 million barrier.
The owner of the Plantagenet Court property paid $890,000 for the six-bedroom residence on a 4379sq m block in 2015, publicly-available property records show.
