Beach Life And Village Convenience

25 Jun 2021

Randwick is a sprawling suburb that stretches from UNSW and the hospital precinct all the way to Queens Park but if you’re looking for a beachside lifestyle as well as village convenience, there are some great spots that offer both. A great example is Mary Anne Cronin’s listing at 28 Bishops Avenue, Randwick which is right on the cusp (the other side of the street has a Clovelly postcode). Steps away from Clovelly village, the owners of this classic Californian bungalow have honoured the exterior of the 1920s classic while transforming the interiors and adding a pavilion-style extension that dissolves into a lush garden oasis.

Mary Anne says, “Bishops Avenue is a particularly tightly held neighbourhood and the current owners love the sense of community and family friendly feel. Their son Arthur stars on the ABC documentary series, Old People’s Homes for 4 Year Olds, that brings together pre-schoolers and aged care residents to see if uniting young and old can improve the health and wellbeing of the elderly. And I’ll be interviewing the young Arthur on my next Bondi Snapshot so make sure to tune in!”

Launched this week, 13/2 Melrose Parade, Clovelly is set in an exclusive seaside enclave footsteps to Gordons Bay with the beach at the end of the street. On the top floor of a boutique block of 15, the three-bedroom apartment makes an appealing alternative to a semi with sweeping district views, ocean glimpses and undercover access to a lock-up garage. Beach and nature lovers will be amazed by Alexander Phillips’ listing at 2/1 Eastbourne Avenue, Clovelly which is the closest home to the beach with direct pathway access to the sand. One of only four in the block and featuring its own private entry, the two-storey home celebrates the beauty of its idyllic setting with breathtaking views from both levels and a choice of alfresco spaces to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the vista.
