SOCIAL MEDIA DYNASTY LISTS $20M NORTH BONDI BEACH HOUSE
Social media phenomenon the Norris Nuts are listing their architect-designed North Bondi home following a $5 million transformation.

North Bondi is one of Sydney’s most coveted addresses thanks to its enviable proximity to Australia’s most famous beach – and the high-profile residents who call it home.
A contemporary six-bedroom house at 117 Brighton Boulevard is a beach house with a very 2026 twist – it’s owned by one of the country’s most influential families.
The vendors don’t come from “old money” and are not of a political persuasion, but the Norris family – also known as The Norris Nuts – have about 20 million social media followers. Former Olympic swimmer Justin Norris, his wife Brooke, and their six children, Sabre, Sockie, Biggy, Naz, Disco and Charm are known for sharing their daily escapades, which reportedly earn them as much as $10,000 a day.
The Norrises purchased the property in 2022 for $15.2 million and then set about transforming the home via a $5 million renovation that enlisted the expert help of award-winning architect Nick Tobias and renowned builders 3M.
Although the family originally intended for the home to house their growing brood, they are now offloading 117 Brighton Boulevard to focus on another North Bondi property they bought back in 2023 for $14.2 million.
Now their reimagined beach house is back on the market with Ric Serrao, Alex Lyons and Christophe Serrao of Raine & Horne Double Bay.
While the agents are not publicly disclosing a price guide, local properties have recently sold for between $13.9 million for a vacant land parcel at 108 Ramsgate Ave and $21.5 million for a penthouse at 6/124 Campbell Parade.
The sleek interiors of the two-storey Norris family home include European oak floors, Calacatta marble surfaces and extensive glazing to capture the coastal light.
At its heart, the spacious open-plan living and dining zone connects to an Instagram-worthy marble kitchen with a grand island bench large enough to welcome half a dozen kids. The space features top-of-the-line appliances and sliding doors opening out to a private backyard, complete with a sun deck and a plunge pool.
The ground floor also houses a family-friendly laundry, a media room, and a main bedroom suite with an ensuite and a walk-in wardrobe with a skylight.
Upstairs, the views come into focus in the expansive second living room. There is a full communal bathroom and four more bedrooms, each with built-ins, one with an ensuite and two with integrated desks.
Fit for a family who works from home, the North Bondi property has a separate studio space out the back with a private entrance.
Throughout the house, the technology has been updated with Control4 automation, a Sonos sound system, Circadian lighting, VRV air-conditioning, automated blinds, heated bathroom floors, and a CCTV security system.
A front courtyard has plenty of room for three cars, a real estate rarity in Bondi, but there is also a DA approval for a double lock-up garage.
The Norris family’s residence at 117 Brighton Boulevard is listed via private treaty with Ric Serrao, Alex Lyons and Christophe Serrao of Raine & Horne Double Bay.

Abadeen, the Lower North Shore’s most active and prominent residential developer, together with investment partner Phoenix Property Investors, has lodged a State Significant Development Application to transform the former Honeysuckle Garden and Midas site on Military Road into 100 premium new homes.
With an estimated completed value of $230 million, the proposed development will transform the former Honeysuckle Garden and Midas site into a landmark mixed-use residential community comprising 100 premium residences, activated ground-floor retail and a resort-style rooftop wellness and recreation precinct designed to become one of the Lower North Shore’s most exceptional resident amenities.
The proposal has been carefully designed to respond to the site’s varied street frontages and surrounding neighbourhood. The building comprises predominantly five and nine storeys, steppingdown towards Hale Road to reduce its visual impact, with the tenth level rooftop
wellness facilities rather than residential apartments. This built form remains below the 12-storey outcome identified through Mosman Council’s recently endorsed Masterplan process, demonstrating a considered approach to delivering much-needed housing while respecting the site’s context and neighbouring properties.
Designed by leading Australian practice DKO Architecture, under the direction of Senior Associate Matthew Ritchard, the proposal has been conceived as a contemporary response to Mosman’s unique landscape, history and community.
Occupying a prominent position on Military Road between Cremorne and Mosman villages, the site is close to boutique retail, acclaimed dining, harbour beaches, leading schools and excellent public transport connections. Upper-level residences would enjoy panoramic views stretching north across Middle Harbour, south to the Sydney CBD skyline, east to Balmoral and Sydney Heads, and west across the Lower North Shore.
Abadeen Executive Chairman Justin Brown said the project represented an opportunity to deliver a new generation of homes for Mosman that responded to changing buyer needs while remaining respectful of the suburb’s established character.
“This is one of the most significant sites to come to market on the Lower North Shore in many years,” Brown says.
“The apartments have been designed as genuine long-term homes, with efficient floor plans that maximise usable living areas, generous internal storage, strong natural light and practical connections between internal and external spaces. A diverse range of apartment sizes and configurations provide greater housing choice for individuals, couples, families and local downsizers.
“The focus has been on creating homes that caters for a broad range of buyers, from young professionals purchasing their first home, to couples establishing themselves, growing families and local downsizers who want to remain in Mosman.”
