The lavish games room at 9 Thornbill Drive, Yarrambat, is revving buyers up.


A Yarrambat stunner where you can park your pride and joy in the games room is poised to break the suburb’s price record.

It also boasts a pool, plus eye-catching features from the orange and white garage door to colourful LED lights around the kitchen.

Fletchers’ Ric Justice said while the overall quality of the owner-builder home at 9 Thornbill Drive helped it to stand out, the games room went further.

“I’ve had discussions with buyers who said there’s been nothing like it available for some time,” Mr Justice said.

It has space for you to drive through from the garage, a pool table, a basketball game station, table tennis, a roof-mounted disco light and an assortment of sporting memorabilia.

A walk-in wardrobe provides plenty of space for the perfect party outfit, too.


It also connects to the home’s pool zone, which is sheltered beneath a louvred ceiling.

An open-plan living and dining space adjoins a kitchen with coloured lighting near ground level and a designer light fixture over a waterfall-edge island bench.

It also has a butler’s pantry.

A home theatre, rumpus room and office round out the home’s shared spaces.

There’s even room outside for family’s to let the kids run their own racetrack.


Six bedrooms include a main with an expansive walk-in wardrobe and ensuite.

The house also features hard-to-match upgrades including commercial-grade refrigerated airconditioning, a “very good security system” and mobile-phone control for many of the electronics.

Outside, the 4000sq m plot features low-maintenance landscaped gardens, a portico entrance to the main home and garage space for three cars accessed via a circular driveway.

A range of living spaces add appeal around the house.


If sold in its $3.2m-$3.5m range the house will easily break Yarrambat’s $2.7m house price record set by 171 North Oatlands Rd last year.
