A newly unveiled reimagining of 'Darby', a c1920 seaside classic, brings an artful expression of coastal luxury to the heart of Clovelly. Designed by award-winning architects Potter&Wilson, the double-fronted home has made an illuminating move into a brighter, more connected way of life while preserving its significant heritage character. Spatially ingenious and beautifully resolved, the three-storey home unfolds across spaces designed to gather, work, play and retreat, culminating in a dynamic two-storey extension crowned by a rooftop eyrie with sweeping 180-degree views from the ocean to Botany Bay. Soft curves, arched openings and limestone crazy paving evoke timeless Mediterranean architecture, while European Oak, jewel-toned quartzite and sculptural detailing bring warmth and calm. A helical staircase and sculptural skylights form striking focal points, while cathedral ceilings elevate the parents' retreat above the palm-fringed pool. Conceived as a resort-style garden oasis, the landscaped backyard features a barbecue terrace and heated pool grounded by recycled brick. Freestanding to the north and complete with double garaging via Cliff Lane, the five-bedroom home is 250m to Clovelly village and an easy walk to the beach, ocean pool and Gordons Bay.
