13 Busby Parade, Bronte, NSW 2024

The newly completed reinvention of one of Bronte's earliest residences pays homage to the past while bringing a luxurious contemporary narrative to the interiors and injecting the three-storey home with a sense of joy and energy. Built c1870, the property is entrenched in Bronte's history as part of the original Chesterfield Heights Estate and today stands as one of the beachside suburb's finest residences. A rare opportunity to secure a slice of history on a dual access 627sqm block, the double-fronted home has been designed to embrace the outdoors with all three levels opening to view-swept terraces while glorious gardens with a party sized saltwater pool and self-contained guest cottage make this the ultimate family home. Tastefully renovated interiors are complemented by landscaped gardens by Ebla Studio that feature a choice of space to gather, relax, play or entertain while a separate guest house is ideal for teen or au pair accommodation. A commanding setting perched on the hillside between Bronte and Clovelly Beaches affords magical views over the valley to the ocean and the eastern coastline that are beautiful by day and spectacular by night. In the catchment for Clovelly Public School, the property comes with triple parking including double garaging via Clifton Lane and is just 450m to Macpherson Street village where you'll find Iggy's Bread, Cali Press and Woolworths Metro.
