Overview

'NORWOOD' Federation Edwardian Sanctuary in a Blue-Ribbon Kensington Setting

In one of Kensington's most prestigious streets, Norwood blends the grandeur of 1920s Federation architecture with exceptional modern versatility. Beyond its private front garden, a tessellated verandah and elegant entry open into a deceptively large family home featuring multiple living spaces, four bedrooms in the main residence, and a fully self-contained two-level studio with private entry. A vast covered entertaining terrace with bi-fold doors extends from the open-plan kitchen, living and dining areas to landscaped gardens and a sparkling in-ground swimming pool - creating the perfect backdrop for year-round living, relaxing and entertaining. Norwood's coveted address offers a rare combination of private sanctuary and unbeatable convenience. Just 10 minutes to Sydney Airport, the CBD, Harbour, and Eastern Beaches, with leafy strolls to schools, light rail, Centennial Park, the SCG, Randwick Racecourse, and The Australian Golf Club.
