A serene Australian retreat owned in the 1980s by AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd is on the market. Located in Beaumaris, a bayside suburb near the musician's hometown of Melbourne, Victoria, the house is around 500 miles southwest of the classic rock band's original stomping grounds in Sydney.

Currently listed at $2.5–$2.65 million in Australian dollars (roughly $1.8–$2 million in U.S. funds), an auction for the plush 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is scheduled for July 31. The real estate agents managing the sale are also currently taking open houses.

The Herald Sun pointed out the rock 'n' roll provenance of the house on Thursday (July 8), with agent Ryan Castles telling the website, "If the walls could talk I’m sure there would be some stories to tell."

The lavish home includes six entertaining spaces. One of them is a dedicated billiards room still holding a pool table that belonged to Rudd in the early AC/DC days, according to Blabbermouth. The drummer reportedly owned the Beaumaris property from 1981–1984, selling it after he first left the band in 1983. He returned to AC/DC in 1994 before leaving the act again in 2015.

Still, Rudd is considered a classic AC/DC member, and he once again reunited with the group in 2018 following a series of legal issues and a health setback. He performs on the band's latest album, last year's Power Up, alongside returning singer Brian Johnson.

Rudd also once owned a $4 million waterfront mansion in New Zealand. Look inside the Australian house below, following a description of the home found on the website containing the listing:
