A Kew home, built in 2016 with the dream mancave by Anderson Homes boss Laurie Anderson, was snapped up before its scheduled weekend auction.

It was the 2017 Master Builders Association Victorian runner-up for home of the year which left the judges, like the buyers, impressed by the home’s hydraulic raised driveway.

The Hillcrest Avenue driveway led to the basement in the home that cost $4 million to build after its design by Anderson Home in conjunction with Stephan Kosa Architects.

The vast 320 sqm basement space came with video golf driving range, bar with beer on tap, wine cellar, plus workshop complete with car turntable and its automoted driveway ramp.

There was even light through a window view through to the pool.

There's a lift to upstairs in the four bedroom, four bathroom home that sat on a 740 sqm block which cost $1.98 million in 2014.

No sale price has emerged from the mid-week auction, but Kay & Burton agent Scott Patterson and Fletchers’ Jeremy Desmier, had initially advised to expect to pay between $6.2 million to $6.8 million.

There's speculation closer to $7 million was achieved, which would rank as the top result for weekend listings.
