Without the throng of visitors that flock to Bondi in summer, the big surf of Bronte or Coogee’s vibrant nightlife, Clovelly’s calm waters and rock platforms give it a more relaxed feel reminiscent of a European seaside village. Life in Clovelly is centred around the beach with the ocean pool, surf club and snorkelling at Gordons Bay big drawcards for lovers of the great outdoors with the coast walk connecting the village to neighbouring Bronte and Coogee Beaches.

Our beachside specialist David Tyrrell says, “With less than 5,000 residences, it’s harder to get a foothold in Clovelly as families tend to put down roots and homes rarely trade. In saying that, we’ve never had such a broad range of properties on the market as we do right now. We have a choice of four properties at the moment with something for everyone from an entry level garden apartment to a grand beach house that still offers scope to add value right up to a newly built architectural masterpiece and a high-end boutique residence in the landmark Sea Clovelly.”

At the top end of the market, 12 Shackel Avenue, Clovelly is just around the corner from the beach with panoramic views over the ocean and Wedding Cake Island as a backdrop to daily life. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens on a 455sqm block, huge for Clovelly, the four-bedroom home is set in a family friendly cul-de-sac surrounded by idyllic marine parkland with triple parking.

Right opposite the Clovelly Hotel in the heart of the village, 1/352 Clovelly Road, Clovelly is the largest in the landmark Sea Clovelly, a boutique collection of three high-end residences designed by Bureau SRH with interiors by Coco Republic. This is the ultimate in low-maintenance luxury with over 300sqm of living space over two levels with gardens by Wyer & Co, a home cinema and private lift access to double garaging. With its signature wave-like form and exceptional craftsmanship, Sea Clovelly sets a benchmark for design in Clovelly earning it a UDIA Award for Excellence in 2019.

If you’re looking for space, views as well as potential to add your stamp of style, 14 Blackwood Avenue, Clovelly is the ultimate beach house with dual street frontage and a family friendly two-storey layout. Newly refreshed and ready to move straight in, the grand freestanding home is a breezy stroll down to the beach and across the sand to the Clovelly Hotel.

Those looking to enter the market would be hard pressed to find a better home than 39B Burnie Street, Clovelly. The sunny garden apartment features its own private entry giving it a beach cottage feel in a quiet laneway in a neighbourhood wellness hub surrounded by cafes, yoga studios and organic cafes. All four properties will be open to view tomorrow so come and check them out before heading down for a swim, a refreshing beer at The Cloey or a nice relaxing lunch by the sea.

This week the sales team secured 10 sales with an average price of $4.3m and listed 22 new properties. Take care, stay safe and keep connected.
