houzz.com is a great resource. I find it better than Pinterest.

I went to see the Norman Park property over the weekend. There was only one other couple at the open home on the day. Seems as though the vendor may have raised their expectations a bit too much and scared off some of the buyers. A quick look on the 2011 flood maps also revealed the house was...
