What quite a few don’t know is I spent my teen years growing up in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales. The area had a few claims to fame such as Sir Donald Bradman, the flick Babe, and there was a very out and proud family of inbreds. Oh, and also The Big Potato.
It’s probably one of Australia’s most underrated landmarks, located on the main street of Robertson. Actually, who am I kidding? Back when I was younger, and even now, I still think it looks like a giant rusted turd! It’s not the prettiest thing in the world, and I’m surprised it hasn’t been knocked down already.
As it turns out, The Big Potato is currently back on the market for only $920,000, so if you want an expensive piece of shit. Now is your chance.
The current owners purchased it back in 2014 for $450,000 to use the property to extend their supermarket, but now it’s up for sale again. The listing agent says the eyesore can be knocked down. So perhaps the locals kicked up a stink, and the owners are trying to pass it onto someone else while cashing in on it at the same time.
Any takers?
