94 Empress Road
Surrey Hills

A timelessly elegant 1926 California Bungalow, beautifully renovated and extended for contemporary family life, this four bedroom, two bathroom classic is gently nestled within an exquisite, north-facing garden allotment of 780 square metres that culminates in sundrenched, poolside entertaining. Offered for the first time in 23 years, this much-loved family sanctuary is ready to be enjoyed in a premium Surrey Hills position that offers zoning for Camberwell High School, Canterbury Girls Secondary College as well as excellent private school access.

Privately sheltered behind established gardens and well elevated above the streetscape, the home opens to reveal an impressive entrance hall set under a lofty double height void, before flowing around a striking curved wall to its open-plan crescendo. Extending outdoors to paved poolside dining and entertaining that is superbly sheltered by a string of established Silver Birches while drawing the northern sun, the open plan is anchored by a modern stone-topped kitchen with a large pantry and a bold entertainers’ spirit.

Introducing streams of natural light from all directions and framing verdant outlooks at every opportunity, the home also features a separate lounge room, built-in robes or cabinetry in each bedroom, a pair of contemporary bathrooms and a powder room, while further highlights include driveway parking for two vehicles, ducted heating, air conditioning and volumes of storage that includes plenty of cupboards, under the stairs, in the roofline and the laundry.

Set within one of Surrey Hills’ most esteemed tree-lined pockets just moments from Union Road and Union Railway Station for easy private school access, as well as Maling Road’s café scene and glorious local parkland.
