For 500k£, you can buy my across the street neighbor and have 100k to spare. It's a 4 room 4 bathroom house. The listing doesn't say house sq but I'd estimate at 4k sqf.

You sure about that?  500k£ converts to like $850k CDN.

It's not that fancy but the GMA is going thru a price correction. Not sure what the official statistic is but anecdotal evidence show my neighborhood avg price having double over the last 2 years.

Or a similarly sized house for double the price!

Yeah but O.S. Caulfield lived there in 1905. You just cannot buy that kind of history.

Seriously though, that is a cute little house. Not 900k cute though.

12.5 million dollars for a 2,000 sq foot home? For that kind of money it better come with villages that I have feudal rights over.

:mmm:

Though the lack of swimmable bay would be an issue for that type of money.

How is it compared to the UK?

I've swam here in Scotland, Cornwall etc - North Sea, Atlantic - so I think it'd probably be okay (though maybe need a wetsuit) but I have no idea what it's like in comparison because I know the Gulf Stream is weird.

Edit: Near where I lived in Scotland is amazing for surfing so they often have legs of international tournaments there and it was always kind of funny seeing poor Hawaiians or Aussies adjusting :lol:

I'm not really sure, TBH...something we had always been told when I was stationed there...after doing some googling, I found myself mistaken (why I removed my post...not fast enough!  :D )...but it does seem to be mostly competitive/wet-suited types.

I guess I had casual swimming in mind.

Sheilbh

Makes sense - I'd be casual but in a wetsuit. Nothing as fun, though initially bracing as jumping off a harbour wall and swimming in :wub:

Wait...560 square feet?

Damn. Well I guess it is good it is just you.

Prices on the Central Coast are even higher now - all the "San Francisco Flight" actually resulted in most just moving out of the City and to places like Santa Cruz, Monterey, etc.
