Tudor Court was a well-known reception centre in the Melbourne suburb of Caulfield, described as "one of [Melbourne's] favourite venues for a celebration involving hundreds of guests eating and dancing late into the night". Despite its historical and cultural value, the property failed to make the Victorian state heritage register. Rather, the value of the land it sat upon would decide its fate. The property was sold by actor Costas Kilias on 12 July 2006 for $6.4mil and a year later, in October 2007, to Becton Property Group for $12.5mil, more than double the price one year before. The iconic building was demolished in 2007, to make way for a "luxurious" 110-suite aged-care facility opened in 2014, and operated by Arcare Pty Ltd. Read more on Wikipedia
