Coulton House, A Grand 1870s Victorian Italianate Manor In Bondi

5 May 2023

Bondi Beach is synonymous with sun, sand and surf but it’s the cooler months when the beach is at its beautiful best and locals love the quieter pace of life at Australia’s most iconic beach. With its bustling social scene and top-notch restaurants, Bondi is a fun place to live all year round but it’s magic in winter and the Bondi Festival returns at the end of June with a huge range of events from interactive performances to family favourites like the ice-skating rink and Ferris Wheel. This week the team secured the sale of two superbly located family homes with 7 Watkins Street, Bondi selling for around $3m after six days on the market and 81 Watson Street, Bondi selling for around $5.7m.

The good news is we still have a choice of family homes in Bondi with Conrad Panebianco’s listing at 6 Watson Street, Bondi one of the most significant properties to hit the market in decades. Conrad says, “A property of this scale and historic significance is extremely rare in the marketplace and there really isn’t anything quite like it in Bondi. Built c1870, Coulton House is

the sixth largest property in Bondi and last traded in the late 1960s presenting a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a trophy home. On a prime 825sqm corner block, interest so far has been strong thanks to its prime location in the heart of South Bondi with local institutions footsteps from the door and an easy walk down to Sydney’s most famous beach.” The six-bedroom manor features parking for five cars, an absolute rarity so close to the beach, and comes with a buyer’s guide of $7m.

On one of North Bondi’s top streets, 27 O’Donnell Street, North Bondi is an architecturally designed family home with sweeping views over Bondi to the ocean and a north-facing backyard that’s dedicated to year-round entertaining. The two-storey home on 373sqm approx is just 700m to Ben Buckler village cafes and eateries and comes with a buyer’s guide of $4.5m. Those looking to make their mark should check out 2 Gilgandra Road, North Bondi which is a wide-fronted semi on over 300sqm with scope to create a contemporary masterpiece. Available for the first time in 30 years, there’s plenty of potential her with a pavilion-like extension triple parking and a buyer’s guide of $3m making this a fantastic opportunity for the growing family.

Bathed in northerly sunshine on the NE wing, the three-bedroom apartment offers 126sqm of living space with an awe-inspiring beach and ocean panorama that will never be built out as well as double garaging.
