Fans of The Block and those looking for a “rich people’s” home rejoice. The former Gatwick Hotel’s now luxuriously renovated apartments are officially for sale, with the listings landing online today.
The building that has caused so much anguish and drama (and we’re not talking about its shady past) is almost complete, and the five couples have started to advertise the fruits of their hard labour, along with their amazing bathrooms.
The listings show prices for apartments will range from $2.2 million (the lowest price range on pilot and air hostess couple Courtney and Hans’ apartment) to $2.75 million (the highest price range on Queensland couple Jess and Norm’s penthouse).
The prices sit well above the median house price in St Kilda of $1.02 million, according to Domain Group data, but The Gatwick borders the much more expensive suburb of St Kilda West, where the median house price is a whopping $2.38 million. Units in St Kilda have a median price of $527,000 and in St Kilda West, it’s again higher at $630,000.
So let’s take a look at what’s up for sale:
