A Bronte Beauty Reimagined By Luigi Rosselli With Curated Interiors And North-Facing Gardens
Built c1903 and embraced by Good Manors-designed gardens, this Queen Anne style Federation classic has undergone a transformative redesign by acclaimed architect Luigi Rosselli without shedding its beautiful heritage facade. Grounded in nature and incredibly private, the two-storey home embraces the fluidity of forms with the architect's signature humanist approach and focus on sustainability and longevity delivering a forever family home. Juliet Ashworth of globally renowned interior design firm Chada Residential has worked her magic on the interiors with a palette of light oak, bronze and stone complemented by statement lighting and custom joinery achieving a mood of understated luxury. With its distinctive sculptural design and organic lines, the contemporary rear opens to a north-facing garden with spaces to relax, gather and entertain shaded by a century-old Grey Gum tree with outdoor lighting creating a magical ambiance by night. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a home that's a joy throughout the seasons with an ocean outlook from the master retreat and soft curves throughout echoing the organic sculptural form on the northern side. In a tightly held pocket of Bronte just up from the beach, this a home of enduring style and substance with high-tech solar and home tech credentials.
