“Irreplaceable” is how Mr Flynn describes the home, which is on the largest block in Grange.
The 2239sq m property set the suburb record in 2014 when Scott and Sacha Flynn paid $3.85m for the home.
Ray White Ascot’s Damon Warat oversaw the auction of the Hamilton estate just before Christmas and he is partnering with Ray White Wilston’s Alistair Macmillan to sell the Grange estate at auction on Saturday at 10am.

Already 73 groups of buyers have inspected the home.
“We’re expecting a good turnout and we’ve had a really huge level of inquiry,” Mr Warat said.
“It has all the fundamentals of good real estate: elevation, size and the potential to add value.”
The property features a gabled, five-bedroom house on an elevated block with city views. It has a rare 50m street frontage, a tennis court and a swimming pool.

The house itself had been renovated before the Scotts moved in and they have maintained it since then.
