Family Beach House In The Heart Of Bronte Village With A Flexible Layout And Ocean Views

California cool meets laidback Mediterranean style in this creatively redesigned beach house in the heart of Bronte village. Spread over two levels with an unexpectedly spacious and incredibly versatile layout, the 6.4m wide semi captures views to the ocean from a wide entertainer's deck and features rear access to Chesterfield Lane with parking for up to three cars. Huge open living spaces, an easy indoor/outdoor flow and minimalist interiors embody Bronte's laidback beach lifestyle with a villa-like layout that's designed for low-maintenance living and relaxed entertaining. A family friendly layout features two bedrooms on each level with the lower level family room and home office or fourth bedroom benefitting from a separate entry making it ideal for multi-generational living. High ornate ceilings and polished floorboards add plenty of character to the upper level while the lower level's sleek polished concrete floors and all-white palette create a sanctuary like feel. A few doors up from Woolworths Metro, Iggy's Bread and Cali Press, the classic 1920s Californian bungalow is in the catchment for Clovelly Public School and an easy walk down to Bronte Beach, the ocean pool and buzzing beachside cafe strip.
