Architect-Reimagined Fisherman's Cottage, North Facing Dual Access Block, 500m To Bronte Beach
One of Bronte's few remaining fisherman's cottages, this sun-filled beach house was recreated by award-winning architects Neeson Murcutt retaining the fabric of the original home while creating a warm and inviting family home that radiates light and vitality. At the tightly held beach end of the street, 500m to the sand and surf, the freestanding cottage faces due north and has been designed to blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living with leafy greenery all around creating a wonderful connection with nature. An artistic fusion of earthy natural materials and vintage treasures brings life and personality to the home with bright interiors that are big on barefoot charm with artisan finishes bringing a whimsical vibe. Set on a dual access block with potential for parking via Read Lane, the two-storey cottage's easy fluid layout features a choice of living area and all the nooks and crannies of a true home. Just 350m to Bronte Public School, this is one of Bronte's best spots an easy 700m walk to Tamarama Beach and along the coast to famed surf breaks, Icebergs Pool and Bondi Beach.
