UNDER THE HAMMER THIS WEEKEND - NOV 2

How absolutely storybook perfect is the entrance to this substantial home in Sydney's Wahroonga? Built in 1913, 1564 Pacific Highway has been in the hands of the same family for 70 years.

Situated on a huge block of 948sqm, the house is set a long way back from the road, with established and bountiful gardens. Inside are period delights (that iron balustrade is divine), and opportunity.

Ray White Upper North Shores' David Walker has seen a lot of interest here, in an area where properties are selling fast and with high price tags. 120 have toured the estate, which has a price guide of $1.25m.

You can bet on a big turn out for the sale of this classic of 'Anne of Green Gables' home at 2.30pm.

A very unusual, and very attractive apartment is up for auction in Randwick on Saturday.

The top floor 3/12 Dutruc Street is a three bedroom apartment, which are always hard to find, and has been fully renovated, so it comes with modern conveniences and period features.
Plus, according to Ray White Maroubra's Nader Hotait, an elevated ocean view.

This looks like a beauty and not surprisingly it's had a lot of inspections and has nine contracts out on it so far.

The guide here is $1.15m, and the auction action, at 10am, is expected to be very interesting.

It's late in the day but worth keeping an eye on, 40 Fisher Parade, Zillmere.

There are already 16 offers on the table, and Ray White Ascot's Penny Johnson is expecting just as many bidders for this three bedroom cottage.

It's fresh as a daisy indoors thanks to a pre sale refurb, and the block size suggests all sorts of ideas. It's a package of potential plus and it's on auction at 4.30pm.

In Westlake in Brisbane and a large well kept, no maintenance issues property is looking for a buyer with imagination (though it is totally okay as it is if you are into arches).

The five bedroom, three bathroom (plus pool) at 166 Westlake Drive could attract some interest as an entry point large family home. The website is worth seeing just to catch Ray White Centenary agent Tina Saidi and her camera-hog pup.

It's 2pm start here, so there's time to walk the dog before the first bid.

This eye catcher is in the ACT. Ray White Canberra's Vince Pinerri says 68 Jansz Crescent is in a one of the most in demand areas, close to the Capital Triangle. Besides that, it's a very welcome new design style for the Capital City.

Only completed in 2015, the property is very much pitched at the top exec couples and families. Mr Pinerri says he has seen a really wide, though strictly upmarket, demographic come through the doors.

An interesting lower level floor plan will allow furtive imaginations to go wild - there is already a very flash fandangling oven in there.

Great pictures, goes to auction at 11.30 (maybe there'll be pizza slices?)

A really interesting one here in Freemantle. Loaded with history from the very earliest days of the port city, and named after Captain James Lilly (don't say you don't learn anything each week!) is this quite captivating property at 34-36 Cliff Street.

Ray White Applecross agent Noel Rogers is a full bottle on the historical importance of the site, as well as the fact that you can walk out the front door, adorned in a cheery sarong and thongs and be on the beach 250, level, metres later. Fabulous for the family whether visiting or in residence.

For sale as one large five bedroom apartment, it is actually two apartments, offered as one - which opens up even more possibilities - plus the interiors (check out the fish ponds in the floor) are so interesting I implore you to look at the website to get the full story.

A really very special property, it is on auction at 2.00pm WA time.

Still in WA and 14 Elizabeth Street Çottesloe is being offered up by Ray White Cottesloe and Mosman Park's Deborah Brady. A family favourite, this home (on a flat as a tack block), is fully renovated and includes four big bedrooms.

Outdoor entertaining is easy, flowing as it does out to a large level lawn, and it seems like every room has a garden view.

It's proved popular at opens, with the local favourite, the North Street Store, at the end of the street - unlimited coffee scrolls just steps away.

Mark Whitman will be calling the shots at the 2.30pm auction.

Adelaide has quite a few homes on the block on Saturday, and this is an early in the day offering from Nick Borrelli from Ray White Norwood. Welcome to 42 Cornell Avenue, Valley View.

There have been 30 groups on the lookout during opens, mostly first home buyers looking for an 'easy to move in straight away' option. And for those with potentially more space needed for kids (big or small), this one also has a games come rumpus room located as a separate room reached by crossing the undercover veranda. Very smart move. It is big enough to fit a pool table, for all family fun.

Rack 'em up at 10am.
