Privately screened from the road, this smart lower duplex has undergone a complete renovation and offers modern inclusions with beautifully tailored alfresco entertaining and relaxation areas. Conveniently positioned it is a preliminary gateway to a beach loving lifestyle.

Classic white-washed walls assist with an immediate beachside ambience and the bright and airy interiors are further enhanced by the open plan layout. With an easy flow from front to back the casual living area is graced with a traditional brick fireplace and mantel.

Moving through the galley-style kitchen, a clever use of available space has resulted in the creation of a dedicated study zone with custom cabinetry. With CaesarStone bench tops and stylish overhead lighting the kitchen is a contemporary affair. Being able to see right out to the granite-tiled dining area and beyond to the tropically landscaped courtyard gives a real sense of depth and spaciousness to this home.

Specifically tailored for alfresco entertaining, the architect-designed gardens include attractive sandstone walls with in-built mains gas BBQ, large format granite pavers, timber seating and seasonal shade cloth protection. This private sanctuary creates a natural extension of the dining area with its wall-to-wall glass sliders.

To the fore, the communal lawn is flanked by tropical & drought tolerant plantings and includes timber entertaining pods as well as a tree-house landing that is perfect for children to have hours of fun in.

With style being a prominent feature in this home, the Travertine bathroom has been renovated to high standards with European fixtures and fittings, heated towel rails and wide mirrored wall vanity cabinets.

Both the master and second bedroom are bathed in natural sunlight and provide ample storage with built-in floor-to-ceiling robes. A gentle flow of breezes ensure that interiors enjoy comfortable cross ventilation with windows positioned so that full advantage can be taken of the cool southerly when it passes through.

Additional features include a streamlined hidden laundry behind frosted glass bi-folds; beautiful polished floors; separate outdoor storage shed for bikes and boards and a privately enclosed car space behind an automated security gate.

Conveniently situated in a premium locale there is a host of shops and cafes to choose from, as well as being in close proximity to tennis courts, the golf course and the scenic bike & walking track to Manly.
