One of the Northern Beaches most revered homes has just been sold for around $6m, a year since it was listed.
Reeves House, designed by Peter Stutchbury and Sue Harper in the late 1990s at Clareville, has been sold for close to $6m a year after being listed with $6.5m hopes.

The three-level residence last sold in 2016 for $2.925m to the Hunter Valley-bound childcare director Roberta Easton and her husband Patrick.
“Reeves House offers a rare opportunity to acquire one of the defining houses of contemporary Australian residential architecture,” the listing for the home read.

Reeves House, Clareville has been sold,
“Designed by Peter Stutchbury and Sue Harper in association and realised between 1997 and 1999, the three-level residence occupies a private 1,347sqm site on the high side of Hudson Parade.
“Across approximately 208sqm of internal living space, its plan affords an uncommon spatial generosity throughout. The interior follows an east-west axis, opening to the north beneath a voluminous twisted skillion roof.
“A largely closed southern and eastern masonry edge provides privacy and protection before the house opens to gardens, decks and filtered views of Pittwater. Full-height timber-framed doors fold away, extending the living room beneath the roof and making outdoor living fundamental to the plan.

“A restrained palette of concrete block, polished concrete, plywood, recycled timber and fine steel gives the interior warmth and clarity. Thermal mass, winter sun, summer shade and cross-ventilation provide year-round comfort.
“In 2000, Reeves House was one of two residences commended in the Robin Boyd Award for Residential Architecture.
Its selection as one of only 23 Australian single residences in Phaidon’s global atlas – among 1,052 buildings across 75 countries – confirmed its international standing.
Peter Stutchbury Architecture later added the swimming pool and extended the principal living deck.”
