This is just what the doctor ordered for families wanting a big eastern suburbs home with a few luxuries thrown in.
Owned by anaesthetists David Isaac and Stephanie McInnes, you won’t find too many grand five-bedroom houses on 1100 sqm blocks on top of Bellevue Hill with northerly harbour views, a pool and a tennis court for $6.5 million.
The house at 57 Bundarra Rd, with four bathrooms and a double garage, is listed with The Agency’s Ben Collier and goes to auction on August 10.
The inspection times are Saturdays and Wednesdays 10.30am-11am.

Built over three levels, the home has an excellent floor plan with the entry hall leading to a huge open-plan living area and kitchen opening via french doors to a full-width north-facing terrace with district views.
The kitchen is bigger and better than it appears in pictures, with solid timber cupboards, a big black marble island bench and a pantry and double fridge tucked away out of view.
This will be a great party house in summer months — the large barbecue is just through the doors and there are two Miele dishwashers.
Two of the bedrooms with nearby bathroom are also on this level, which is going to suit big families.
The teenagers, who want to be well away from mum and dad, can sleep down here, with the younger ones in the two bedrooms upstairs next to the master.
The master suite is huge and has a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite with a spa. And the harbour view from the bedroom and the adjoining full-width terrace is incredible.
Another of the bedrooms also opens to the terrace. Both bedroom two and bedroom three have doors opening to the shared bathroom.
The fun continues downstairs where a large family room opens to another terrace. Sadly, the pinball machine and the piano are going with the vendors, but at least you can see that there’s plenty of room.
And like everywhere in this house, there’s plenty of shelving and cupboards.
As Mr Collier says: “This home has the perfect aspect, views, tennis court and a multitude of living spaces.”

If I was the buyer, I’d reinstate the sauna in the lower level bathroom. It’s currently a cupboard, but all the mechanics are still there. Hot property, indeed.
