A sunny north-east aspect and lush tropical garden bring a fresh, feel-good spirit to this family beach house in a tightly held Bronte neighbourhood. An easy walk through the gully to the sand and surf, the two-storey semi has been tastefully renovated and extended, retaining the gracious proportions and lofty ceilings of its early 1900s heritage. Elevated for privacy, the 6m-fronted home unfolds with an easy flow from front to back, with a soothing neutral palette drawing on the tones of its coastal surrounds and designed for barefoot living. Four large bedrooms are spread over the two levels, with two on each floor and ocean glimpses from the sun-filled main. Bright and airy living spaces invite relaxed family living with a natural flow to a landscaped backyard escape where a sundeck and built-in banquette seating are framed by lush tropical greenery. In a prized pocket of Bronte just up from the beach and 550m to Bronte Public School, this family classic is an easy 400m walk to Charing Cross village and local favourites including Bellagio, Frank's Deli and Bronte Road Fish.
