The latest property belonging to celebrity gardener Charlie Albone and his interior designer wife, Juliet Love, has been snapped up by a buyer. The high-profile pair announced they were selling their idyllic Maroubra home on February 1, 2025 and it was declared as off the market less than three weeks later.
The couple purchased the coastal property in late 2019 for $2.3 million and gave it an incredible renovation, which involved transforming the two-storey red brick semi-detached property into a classic weatherboard dream home.
“We’ve spent the past four years designing and perfecting this house, and now it’s up for sale so you can enjoy it too!” Charlie shared in an Instagram post. “A healthy home is really important to us, so we’ve added a whole house water filter, magnesium pool, and a beautiful (award winning!) garden in which to relax.”
It was a speedy turnaround for the listing and the home was sold by February 21, 2025 – before the planned February 22 auction. It had a price guide of $3.4 million but was scooped up for $3.85 million.
Charlie has given some clues about the design duo’s next property, revealing they’ve “started a brand new renovation project which we’re so excited about and will be sharing more of soon!”
It sounds like we’re getting another renovation to follow along with on Instagram—and if it’s anything like the couple’s previous projects, we’ve got plenty to look forward to.
The couple previously lived at a seaside home in eastern Sydney and a gorgeous country home in on the New South Wales central coast.
For now, let’s take a look through their Maroubra home…
See inside Charlie Albone and Juliet Love’s Maroubra home
Charlie and Juliet expertly transformed a tired red-brick beach cottage into this classic coastal weatherboard home. The romantic second floor balcony and home’s cool coastal blue shade is a charming sight from the street, which is located just walking distance from the iconic Maroubra Beach and Mahon ocean pool.
The interior is just as dreamy, with Juliet’s eye for luxury materials and bespoke joinery evident in the coastal style kitchen.
The kitchen, which connects to a sunny living area and alfresco space, is fitted with an integrated fridge and dishwasher, as well as a gas stovetop. The Nicolazzi brass tapware and marble tile splashback add coastal charm to the beautiful space.
The sunny living area enjoys floor to ceiling windows and a garden outlook, as well as built-in cabinetry and shelving.
An airy dining space with plantation shutters and double doors is sure to become the setting for family meals and dinner parties with friends.
Along with more plantation shutters and wood floors, a serene shade of blue has been selected for the walls of a number of the bedrooms.
The back garden is where Charlie’ talents shine, with the space being awarded Sydney’s Best Residential Project Under 200m2 in 2024.
Fitted with a resort-style pool with a heat pump and low-tox magnesium filter, there’s also a relaxing poolside cabana with an imported scalloped marble wall to make the most of summer afternoons.
