Some streets have an identity all of their own and Chesterfield Parade in Bronte is undoubtedly one of those. At its best, good street form cultivates a sense of wellbeing and belonging and Chesterfield Parade is a micro-neighbourhood all of its own. With a strong sense of community and family friendly feel, the tightly held street is perhaps best known for the avenue of century old Hill’s Figs that forms a picturesque canopy as well as the beautiful homes that grace its streetscape.

Renowned for its Halloween celebrations and the much-loved Dance Academy East housed in the old Scout Hall, Chesterfield Parade is a place where families tend to put down roots. Tucked away behind Macpherson Street village, a short stroll to popular local hangouts such as Cali Press, Three Blue Ducks and Iggy’s Bread, it’s around the corner from Clovelly Public School and close to a choice of beaches making it a perfect place to raise a family.

One of Bronte’s most coveted addresses, we have just launched two properties on the much-admired street both with views to the ocean. Taking pride of place is the aptly named Figtree House, a grand Victorian manor on 670sqm at 27 Chesterfield Parade, Bronte. With award-winning interiors by Arent & Pyke and a huge private garden with a heated pool, the five-bedroom property has featured extensively in design journals and is an in-demand property for film and photography shoots. With a luxurious master retreat, separate children’s wing and multiple living spaces, this is undoubtedly one of Bronte’s best.

Just a few houses down the street, at 17 Chesterfield Parade, Bronte, is another five-bedroom home with a gorgeous landscaped native garden and a stylish self-contained studio that’s ideal as guest or teen accommodation or to rent out complete with its own entry. With a globally informed design aesthetic and ocean-view master suite, every detail of the Federation home has been carefully selected from the custom-fitted home office and alfresco lounge to the Perrin & Rowe tapware and Sub-Zero fridges.

Alexander Phillips and his team will be showing both properties tomorrow, Saturday 6th March, with 27 Chesterfield Street, Bronte open from 1.15pm to 1.45pm and 17 Chesterfield Parade, Bronte open from 2.00pm to 2.30pm so you can head to the beach, have a spot of lunch and then check them both out!
