The old shop on a waterfront block was so dilapidated there were fears it would fall over before it could be sold \u2014 but last night it fetched an incredible price at auction.<\/p>\n

The double-storey building on 588sqm block long owned by the Goldberg family at\u00a063 Fitzwilliam Rd\u00a0sold for a whopping $17.1m at the Ray White Double Bay auction room.<\/p>\n

Sources at the auction recognised the winning bidder as the multi-millionaire businessman Victor Comino, known to have been on the lookout for a harbourfront block to build a mansion for one of his three daughters.<\/p>\n
