Ask Pauline and Craig Rooney who plays the pianola in their ­elegant Adelaide dining room and they respond — “everyone — family, friends and visitors”.

It’s just that type of home, according to the couple, who moved in with their three children 25 years ago after they fell in love with the historic sandstone house.
