Two giant Transformers statues stand in the garden of this lavish six-bedroom South Australian property.
Originally designed for the property’s cinema room, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee were too tall to fit through the door, and now they instead stand in the driveway where they make the home look like a Hollywood movie set.
Family has always been at the centre of this rural South Australian home.
“In the past, it was a large venue, it was multi-generational,” Ray White Riverland agent Pat Catalano says.
He thinks that a multi-generational family “would be a perfect target” for the property.
In a rural area, finding a buyer for a property over $2 million can be a challenge, but this Palinga mansion has already attracted attention from online spectators.
“It piques a lot of people’s interest with those massive Transformers out the front,” he said. “People are tagging each other on social media, Facebook particularly, and I see some comments saying ‘Let’s go halves’ or ‘Let’s go quads’.”
He even sees it as a high-end holiday home for interstate buyers who want a taste of riverside living.
But there’s more to this property than just Transformers. The sprawling 3,400-square-metre estate comes with two master suites with walk-in-wardrobes, a massive chef’s kitchen with three Miele ovens, a games room, gym, wine fridge, and underfloor heating.
Outdoors is a large pool with a waterslide, a basketball court, a handball court, and plenty of grassy lawns for running around on.
And, of course, the house comes with its own gold class-style cinema with leather seats, surround sound, and a lifesize Iron Man statue.
“Exquisite attention to detail has resulted in this exceptional build designed to deliver a harmonious lifestyle with every family member in mind,” the listing reads. “Dreams do come true!”
