Frangipani Beach House, A Fresh Take On A Coastal Classic In A Tightly Held Neighbourhood
In a coveted pocket of Clovelly, a breezy 600m stroll down to the sheltered beachfront and ocean pool, this freestanding Californian bungalow is designed for easy living with a lush private garden at the rear and Clovelly Road’s cafes and bakeries just around the corner. Feel-good interiors blend vintage charm with tasteful modern updates that sit in perfect harmony with its seaside setting amid flourishing gardens on a private 386sqm approx. Beautiful proportions, high ornate ceilings and a level flow from front to back invite relaxation in a family friendly neighbourhood just 550m to Gordons Bay’s marine reserve and idyllic snorkelling spots. All three bedrooms are king-sized, the main with a sunroom ideal as a study or nursery, while a choice of living areas is ideal for family life with potential to add a second storey in the future (STCA). Stroll down to Clovelly Hotel or along the coast to the famed surfing spots of Coogee Beach in one direction and Bronte and Tamarama in the other.
