Renting a family home in the east, and particularly in prime coastal locations, can be a bit of a hard slog but the good news is that we have a choice of three beautiful beach houses in Clovelly and Maroubra that are perfectly configured for family life. Our New Business Executive Katrina Borg explains, “There’s so much movement and traction in the eastern beaches and properties are snapped up really quickly. However, the sleepy seaside suburb of Clovelly seems to always be the bridesmaid and never the bride! The laidback cousin of Bondi and Bronte has so much to offer for families with its charming village hub, gorgeous parkland and great schools so anyone that’s looking for a great house in a great community should check out the three family homes we currently have for lease that really hit the mark in terms of space, style and lifestyle. Clovelly is away from the crowds but so close to the action, an easy walk along the coast to Bondi and Bronte but without all the traffic!”

First up, we have a quintessential family beach house on Knox Street with panoramic 180-degree ocean views and a beautifully landscaped backyard with a heated pool. Between Varna and Burnie Parks, with Clovelly Road village at the top of the street, the four to five-bedroom home will be available for lease from mid-April for $3,500/week for a very lucky tenant! To arrange a private inspection, please call Katrina on 0400 455 026.

In a charming neighbourhood pocket and wellness hub just up from the beach, 15 Burnie Street, Clovelly comes with a private north-facing garden and invaluable double off-street parking for $1,650/week making it ideal as a share house or for the young family looking for some outdoor space. The two-bedroom home features an upper level loft retreat that would make a fabulous home office or playroom while its location just 550m to the sand makes day to day living a dream.

Further down the coast, 17 The Corso, Maroubra is a stylish coastal haven an easy 750m walk to the surf action with close proximity to great schools including The International French School and Mount Sinai College. The four-bedroom home has been tastefully renovated but it’s the lush tropical garden and pool that make the home such a great place to live. With a rent of $2,400/week (gardening and pool maintenance included), the bright and airy home is perfect for the active outdoor-loving family.
