1960s Atmospheric Gem Film Location

1960s Atmospheric Gem

St Ives, NSW, 2075

Words do not do this location justice! Built in 1959, this magnificent home is truly resplendent of the era and is the perfect canvas for film, photoshoots and TV. Inside you’re instantly transported to the 60s with the stately formal lounge, defined dining area framed by soaring raked ceilings, exposed timber beams, wood-burning fireplace and self-playing piano. The expansive kitchen area, complete with yellow laminex benchtops, forms the central hub of the home and frames the formal and casual living spaces - perfect for a 15m dolly run.  

Four good-sized bedrooms include a secluded master suite, each bedroom with a unique 60s feel, rich timber accents and a sense of warmth and atmosphere. The living room with statement cathedral ceilings, fireplace and glass sliders take advantage of the north-facing rear gardens and flood the home in natural light, while the fluid indoor/outdoor connection includes a large easterly paved barbecue terrace and lawns bordered by mature private gardens.

The standout of this property is the enormous lower-level rumpus, wet bar and studio which provides amazing opportunities for any project. With unique wallpaper, netted ceilings and eclectic decor, all accessed via spiral staircase, this is one place you don’t want to miss!

Set well back from the street with a semi-circular driveway leading to a 4-plus-car garage and workshop, the driveway has the potential to fit several cars. With amazing versatility, space and privacy, this is the ideal location for all crew sizes.
