Drink and dance in lavish style

IT is home to some unique features and has formed the backdrop of television shows and movies, so it is safe to say this Tallai house is one of a kind.

A “Ferrari red’’ wine-tasting room with 1500-bottle cellar, 16-seat cinema, Greek Romaninspired murals and a bar with a dance floor and karaoke stage are among the sprawling residence’s highlights.

The 8888sq m property at 156 Tallai Rd is on the market under an expressions of interest campaign.

Selling agent Pascal Pierre, who owns three LJ Hooker offices in the city’s north, said it had become so popular the homeowner hosted weddings and film crews over the years.

“Chris Lilley, he filmed at the house and there have been various other movies and TV shows (filmed) there,” he said.

“I think the best part of this house is that it’s totally unique and you’re on private acreage.”

Property records show the owner bought the six-bedroom house in 2011 for $5.8 million.

Mr Pierre said the owner had updated the property, including the technology inside and had built a second residence that was ideal for guests.

“It consists of three bedrooms, its own deck and arguably better views than the main house because it’s higher,” he said.

Entertaining would be a breeze for the new owners, with plenty of features to impress guests.

“It’s got a 1500-bottle cellar and tasting room and it’s Ferrari red,” Mr Pierre said.

“You’ve got the entertainment wing, which has the full 16-seat cinema with state-ofthe-art equipment.

“It also has a fully soundproofed room for music so you can go and play drums from all hours of the morning if you like and no one else will hear.

“The whole house is controlled on an iPad and they have keyless entry too. It’s done by fingerprint.”

Among other features are an infinity-edge pool, a steam room, gym, an electronically retractable ceiling in the main bedroom and seven bathrooms, each with different coloured mosaic tiles.

Mr Pierre said the property also had a “wow button” to turn on the coloured lights surrounding the residences.
