Rare 1960s Pettit + Sevitt display village home for sale in St Ives
One of the 10 homes in the 1966 Pettit + Sevitt display village at St Ives has hit the market.
Known as the Courtyard House since it was designed by the late architect Ken Woolley, the home featured as part of Sydney Living Museums Australian houses tours in 2014.
It will be the third time the Staddon Close home has been offered to market.
“We have lovingly preserved this architectural gem, and hope to find a buyer who will love it has much as we have,” vendor Eleanor Johnson said.
The house retains its original internal floorplan with a sympathetic fourth bedroom extension in the 1980s.
Its Savills listing agent James Yahl said Mid-Century modernist architecture is what buyers are looking for with open-living spaces and a connection to the outdoors.
There had been an earlier display village in St Ives on Mona Vale Road and Richmond Avenue.
Pettit + Sevitt have new designs about to be released reflecting their classic designs.
