I doubt the new owners will restore that wooden heap - it's more likely that they wanted the land to build a modern monstrosity on or even a block of flats.

Interest rates are only going lower and the LVR buffers have only delayed demand that is now coming back, this may well appear a steal shortly.

Look out for a "tragic fire" during the very extensive renovations it will require. :sneaky:
