Today's trophy home sale comes from Drummoyne where Crust Pizza founder Costa Anastasiadis and wife Lauren sold their home for $2.89 million.

Ray White Drummoyne selling agent Chris Wilkins and McGrath's Aladdin Hassen were expecting $2.5 million for the four bedroom property.

Costa bought the Gipps Street home in 2008 for $1.02 million and renovated the backyard to include a swimming pool and entertaining area.

Previously a traditional 1920 bungalow, the home now comprises of a split level open living and dining area with a lower level theatre.

The couple are said to be trading up to the waterfront at Henley.

The Drummoyne home wasn't the only renovation project the couple have undertaken.

They paid $3.7 million for a waterfront mansion across the Parramatta River in 2009 and developed the home.

Anastasiadis opened the first Crust Pizza store in 2001 and has since opened around a further 120 store in 11 years.

He sold the company to Retail Food Group in 2012 for $41 million.
