There is a 3,000 bottle temperature controlled wine cellar.

The land cost $1.1 million in 1997 when bought with partner David Nichols, a manager at a medical diagnostic firm.

It was a decade after he settled in Sydney coming from New Zealand in 1987. 

They bought a Californian bungalow which was falling apart

Its the ultimate entertainers' kitchen allowing 12 people around the table.

LJ Hooker's Noel Nicholson has another Rayner Road house - just two along - for sale.
