198 Clovelly Road, Randwick

On the cusp of Clovelly village, this reimagined 1920s classic reveals a creative reinvention by acclaimed architect Rebekah Clayton that honours the home's heritage while responding beautifully to contemporary family life. The original Californian bungalow facade retains its period charm, while a striking pavilion-style extension grounds the home to its site, with soaring ceilings and generous glazing bringing light, volume and architectural drama. Informed design and a focus on maximising space and functionality create a natural dialogue between past and present. Oriented to the north with a deep private setback, the home strikes a perfect balance between seclusion and connection with a choice of alfresco living zones. At its heart, the main living space dissolves seamlessly into a wraparound deck that cocoons the home in greenery, creating a relaxed indoor outdoor environment ideal for family life and entertaining. A spacious four bedroom layout includes a serene master retreat with lofty vaulted ceilings, along with an oversized lock up garage and a 12sqm approx. storeroom with potential as a gym or wellness space, complemented by a 6kW solar system for reduced energy costs and a lower carbon footprint.
