Local opulence

I could have been knocked over backwards with a dead chicken browsing through the Weekend Oz today.
There I was, down at Minjup Central with my paper, pie, fags, etc., watching the trains go by, and I happened to turn to the Prestige Properties section.
Christ knows why.
Anyway, there's this (below) in the WA section.
It's two (admittedly quite long) streets away from where I live and they want $1.57 million for it.
Owned by some family called Nash.
Never heard of them even though I must have passed the place a thousand times.
Must be well hidden.
You can do that if you're rich.
Missed the open house (last Sunday).
Otherwise, I'd have gone in for a sticky beak.
And maybe to knock off the booze while no one was looking!
That grass has to have been Photoshopped, unless i vigili del fuoco had been around lately!
