Figtree House, A Heritage Manor On 670sqm With Award-Winning Interiors By Arent & Pyke
The grand dame of Chesterfield Parade, Figtree House is a beautifully revived Victorian manor home resting on a sprawling 670sqm block with views to the ocean and sunny Peter Fudge designed garden with a huge lawn and heated mosaic-tiled pool. Inspiring interiors by Arent & Pyke create a highly resolved home with the artful use of colour and texture that celebrates the spaces of the home from the dramatic inky blues of the formal rooms to the sun-washed lightness of the casual living and family zones. Winner of multiple design awards, the five-bedroom home strikes a perfect chord between heritage grandeur and coastal luxury with a sanctuary like parent's retreat, children's wing, guest bedroom and top floor retreat with a picture window framing breathtaking views over Clovelly and the ocean. Playful elements add a sense of joy to the private spaces with Cole & Son wallpaper and custom daybeds for lounging while the Zen-like internal courtyard defines the living areas and a huge deck creates a seamless transition from indoors to out. Set in a coveted neighbourhood just behind Macpherson Street's cafes and eateries, the location is perfect for families with Clovelly Public School at the end of the street and Bronte Beach a 700m walk away.
