14 Norfolk Road, Surrey Hills

This magnificent family home of approx. 68-squares stands out as one of Surrey Hills’ finest. Impeccably designed and master built to a high specification, the home sits proudly within the highly coveted “County Estate” and is a stone’s throw from Union Station, providing access to a number of the area's elite private schools. The two-storey residence, set on approx. 1000 sqms, offers classical sophistication and refined luxury, which is further enhanced by a flawless floorplan that delivers a beautiful synergy between the indoor and outdoor spaces. It is no surprise Hollywood filmmakers chose this traditionally inspired modern home as a location for one of its latest productions, featuring some of today’s biggest stars. As you enter the home, the proportions and quality of the build are apparent: an expansive master bedroom and an elegant formal lounge are separated by an impressive, light-capturing entry void. A wide central hallway leads to a luxuriously large main bedroom suite (custom-fitted walk-in robe and fully-tiled designer ensuite) by a beautiful formal lounge room (gas fireplace), before a chic powder room, copious fitted storage and an excellent family-size laundry. A children’s wing on the first-floor is a welcome retreat of sought-after functionality for a busy family that complemented by a large rumpus/study room or home cinema, superb bathroom (separate bathtub and shower), a powder room, walk-in linen press and a laundry chute, includes four spacious bedrooms incorporating built-in/walk-in robes where two share an immaculate Jack & Jill ensuite. As you make your way past the entry void, the French oak parquet leads you to the north-facing family room, which is punctuated by soaring 4-metre ceilings and a breathtaking kitchen, featuring a gorgeous stone island bench with integrated freezer and dishwasher. The kitchen is further complemented by a selection of high-end brand appliances such as Gaggenau and Miele (includes gas cooktop, pyrolytic and steam ovens, coffee machine, dishwasher plus Vintec wine fridge). Natural stonework is accentuated throughout and frames a cosy Escea fireplace in the family living room that overlooks the swimming pool through extensive picture windows, while cavity sliding doors zone off a sumptuous adjoining dining room with bespoke wine storage and wide bifold doors. Just outside is an undercover deck with a ceiling fan where alfresco entertaining is a wonderful year-round affair enhanced by a built-in Zeigler & Brown BBQ, sink and a drinks fridge. Kids can play on a dedicated ball-sports arena and in the glistening terrace-set pool that is serviced by a cabana. Other attributes include zoned central heating and cooling, ducted vacuum, security alarm, in-built speaker system, automatic blinds, front electric gates and an internal remote-control double garage. This outstanding modern home showcases the best of Surrey Hills family living in a superbly curated and landscaped package close to private and primary schools, Surrey Hills Village cafes and shops, Union Station, as well as Wattle Park, Deakin University and Box Hill Central.
