Robertson's Rockpool
THE Robertson family are letting go of their clifftop eyrie at 12-14 Rock Bath Road, Palm Beach after 43 years. The views don't get better than this. Not only do you have the expanse of the Pacific Ocean, but also the vista looking north to the Central Coast.
The tri-level house has five bedrooms, three bathrooms and space for five cars, featuring generously proportioned living spaces throughout. 'Rockpool' is ideal for someone who wants to transform it into a family home on a coveted double block. It can also be used as a weekender with plenty of income-generating possibilities: each level is fully self-contained with kitchens, bathrooms and separate entrances. It's for sale by private treaty through David Edwards of LJ Hooker Palm Beach with a guide of $18 million.
Coastal haven
This is the kind of home you just don't have to leave. Get your groceries delivered, subscribe to your favourite streaming services and you can stay in the resort-like environment at 29 Grandview Parade, Mona Vale for ages. If you get tired of the beach view, you can stroll a couple of minutes to get to the sand. Set on a generous 1353sqm, the gated entrance makes you feel like you're stepping into another world.
With multiple casual and formal living areas, you can have a large family or house guests and never see them if you don't want to! There are six bedrooms, three bathrooms and space for five cars, and a pool where you can while away the afternoon before deciding which cocktail to have before dinner.
This piece of coastal paradise is up for auction on November 4 through Kylie Segedin of LJ Hooker Mona Vale with a guide of $6.95 million.
Beach beauty at Curl Curl
When Anita Wildash bought 17 Beach Street, Curl Curl four years ago, she was attracted by its proximity to the beach and a street with no through traffic. "In just a minute's walk you can be on the sand of Curl Curl beach," she says. After a major renovation, Anita achieved her vision to create a coastal luxe beach house, adding a top-floor master retreat. The result is a four-bedroom, three-bathroom home with space for two cars.
"There are multiple zones to break away and unwind inside and out, dependent on needs and weather. But our absolute favourite place is the master suite, which has stunning views down the sands of Curl Curl beach. We wake with the sun rise and go to sleep listening to the waves breaking at night."
The tri-level home is up for auction through James Haywood of Cunninghams on November 6 with a guide of $6 million.
Surf's up in Manly
Experience yesteryear and contemporary living with this four-bedroom, two-bathroom home at 41 Malvern Avenue, Manly. Agent Jake Rowe of Rowe Partners says the proximity to the beach - a three-minute walk - has already stirred up considerable interest among families who want to live near the sand and surf.
"It's designed for family living," he says.
"The current owner is a keen surfer and there is great storage space for his surfboards, bikes and standup paddleboards. There is also a hot and cold outdoor shower."
The Federation-style house, circa 1912, has undergone a major renovation. "It still has its original charm and features like the ornate ceilings but when you go into the main living space it opens up into a modern contemporary feel. It's also wired for high-speed internet and has study areas each for mum, dad and the kids."
It's scheduled for what's set to be a hot auction on November 6 with a guide of $5.25-$5.75 million
Family lifestyle package
Ideal for a family with young kids or teenagers, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home at 4 Holloway Place, Curl Curl is walking distance to Freshwater High School and Harbord Primary.
Agent Mike Dunn of Clarke & Humel says: "It's the ultimate family lifestyle package, with a large pool, trampoline, multiple family-friendly living areas and four-car parking. To top it all off you are positioned at the end of a family-friendly cul de sac."
The level block is also massive. "The average land size in Curl Curl is around 500sqm; this home is set on over 961sqm of level land. Combine that with being set directly on beautiful parklands, which give you the ability to grab the surfboard and have a level walk or ride through parklands to Curl Curl Beach, makes this an unbelievably rare offering."
It's up for auction on November 6 with a guide of $4.8 million.
