53 Severn Street Balwyn North, VIC 3104

One-of-a-kind and finely crafted to elite standards, an impressive showcase of lavish proportions and top-tier finishes will excite discerning buyers within this just-completed five bedroom, five bathroom residence.

On the tree-lined corner of Hood Street, merely metres from the gates of locally zoned Balwyn High School, Myrtle Park and Macleay Park, a broad reception foyer with an imported custom-designed mirror, fitted mud room and a sculpted staircase makes an unforgettable first impression. Even more eye-catching, the formal lounge dominates this space with its breathtaking and north-facing double height void, chandelier and marble gas log fireplace.

Irresistibly alluring for any occasion or season, the broad dining and family room is an entertainer's dream. Relax under the star-lit ceiling while watching movies on the home theatre system with automatic screen, Epson 4K projector and 5.1 channel audio. Prepare mouth-watering dishes in the kitchen with a backlit marble island, second kitchen, and premium appliances including a Fotile top-load dishwasher and Miele induction cooktop, gas cooktop, oven, microwave, integrated refrigerator/freezer and dishwasher. Dine alongside or step past the tri-slide glazing into the enclosed alfresco with an outdoor kitchen and garden bi-folds.

With a ground floor guest suite, ascend the stairs to the tree-top retreat, an enclosed balcony that would be ideal as a gym or wellness space, and the master bedroom that boasts two dressing rooms and a dual-vanity ensuite with Arcisan massage shower and fluted free-standing tub. There's a second free-standing tub another ensuite for children who love to bathe.

With 3.3-metre ceilings on the ground floor and 3-metre ceilings upstairs, there's also double glazing, hydronic heating, zoned Daikin central heating/air-conditioning, bathroom under-floor heating, a powder room, European Oak parquet floors, a 6.6kW solar power system, CCTV, intercom, and internal entry to a double auto garage with EV charger.

Appreciate the easy walk to the tram bound for Kew's private schools, the city bus, lively cafes and two primary schools.
