THE DEAL

INSPECTIONS VIA PRIOR REGISTRATION ONLY

Inspiration and innovation are weaved into the time-tested handiwork of award-winning architect Steve Domoney, with his creation at 14 Monica Street representing the pinnacle of Mar Lodge luxury.

Lush landscaping, sharp lines, a Western Cedar-clad facade, and high-side placement make for a street stance that never ceases to captivate, with Aimee Tarulli-designed interior spaces lying beyond. Jamb-less pivot doors, textured plaster, Signorino floor tiles, and a towering, dual-storey void greet an ultra-wide entrance foyer, with substantial office/fifth bedroom, bathroom, fully fitted theatre room, and multi-user study areas introduced en route to the home’s remarkable focal point. Adding to the home’s feeling of luxe through expanse, voids soar above fireside sitting and broad family zones, while vivid garden vistas and streams of all-day sunlight enliven an open dining area. Sure to excite even the most passionate cook, honed granite lines worktops, splashbacks, and a waterfall island, joined by abundant New Age veneer cabinetry, a water purification system, and a combination of twin ovens with warming drawers, a fully integrated double fridge plus freezer, pair of integrated dishwashers, vacuum-seal cabinet (all Miele), and concealed preparation kitchen with additional basins and storage.

Full-height-and-width glass slides to merge inside with out, spilling into a backyard setting that just can’t be beaten. A built-in barbecue alfresco, open-air lounge, back powder room and shower, and canopies of manicured greenery neighbour a fully tiled, self-cleaning, gas/solar-heated pool and spa, lifting the home’s hospitality prowess above all others.

High ceilings and huge proportions continue upstairs, with a tranquil retreat and void-side day bed sitting centrally among world-class accommodation. Served by walk-in robes, an ensuite to guest, and main bathroom with twin basins and a soaker tub, three considerable, upper bedrooms complement a simply magnificent, second-storey master, with an oversized dressing room neighbouring an open ensuite with black accents and a soaker tub/twin basins by Apaiser.

Further highlights include mobile integration to security cameras, alarm, gate, and a four-car garage, WiFi-controlled zoned ducted heating/refrigerated cooling, in-floor heating, automated blinds, clever night and garden lighting, full irrigation, surround-sound to living, external speakers, commercial-grade double-glazing, feature-grade spotted-gum floors upstairs, 100% merino wool carpets, Pietro Grigio natural stone to master ensuite and downstairs bathroom, designer lighting by Giopato & Coombes, Spigolo, and Rakumba, an oversized laundry with Miele washer and dryer, retractable in-wall vacuum, storeroom, and stunning views reaching the city skyline.

With Mar Lodge surrounds revered for their leafy streets and prestige residences, it’s close to elite schools in PEGS, St Bernard’s, Lowther Hall, St Columba’s, and Ave Maria, scattered parks and sporting fields, the picturesque Maribyrnong River, CBD-bound trains and trams, CityLink, Keilor Road and Buckley Street shopping and dining, and vibrant North Essendon Village.
