Charming Beach Cottage With Wide Ocean Views

Quintessential cottage charm and beachside living come together in this 1920s cottage at the very end of Clovelly’s best-loved cul-de-sacs. One of Clovelly’s few remaining authentic beach houses, the three-bedroom home captures wide ocean views over Wedding Cake Island with a wraparound deck for entertaining alfresco or simply soaking up the vista and a sunny garden framed by leafy greenery. Available for the first time in 64 years, this vintage gem is a breezy 350m stroll down to the beach. Be inspired by neighbouring homes and realise the full potential of this idyllic site with potential to maximise the ocean panorama from a second level addition (STCA). Featuring undercover parking and a huge basement with scope to develop, this is one of Sydney’s most coveted seaside neighbourhoods with views to Burrows Park and a short stroll along the coast to Bronte and Tamarama Beaches and Gordons Bay’s secret beach and snorkelling spots.
