38 Shackel Avenue, Clovelly.

The creative redesign of this beachside beauty channels the natural tones of its coastal setting with 180-degree views over Clovelly Bay and Wedding Cake Island to Wylie's Baths and Malabar Headland as a captivating backdrop to daily life. A quiet end-of-cul-de-sac position in one of Clovelly's most tightly held enclaves is the perfect spot to enjoy the great outdoors, 250m to the beach and a scenic stroll along the coast to Bronte and Gordons Bay. Built in 1919, the Edwardian classic has been transformed into a contemporary three-storey home that's tailor-made for laidback living and entertaining with a lush backyard featuring a sparkling saltwater pool as centrepiece. Soaring 6m entrance ceiling brings the wow factor with an open sightline to the ocean vista while a series of sundecks and terraces bring in the light and forge a close connection with the coastal landscape. A quality build, highly functional layout and carefully selected finishes have created a wonderfully liveable family beach house with views that will never be built out. • Soaring 6m entrance ceiling, recycled American Barn Oak flooring • 4 double bedrooms with built-ins and 3 living zones • Sunlit main with vaulted ceilings, Cole & Son wallpaper • Entertainer's Calacatta marble kitchen with a 3m island • Smeg range cooker, Bosch dishwasher, walk-in pantry • Living/dining with bi-folds to a view-swept Eva-Last deck • Family room with a gas fireplace and ocean-view deck • Casual living and home office with travertine floors • Sandstone entertainer's terrace and landscaped garden • Self-cleaning heated mosaic-tiled saltwater pool • 2 limestone bathrooms with underfloor heating • Main with a freestanding Kaldewei bath and rain shower • Custom V-groove joinery and extensive built-in storage • Reverse cycle air, surround sound, flush ceiling speakers • 5.8kW Enphase solar power, Cat 6 cabling, CCTV, b2b alarm • Automated lock up garage plus additional car space, storeroom, lined attic
