Raising the benchmark for low-maintenance living, this sublime apartment, stylishly updated in a crisp coastal aesthetic throughout, packs a lengthy list of highlights into its second-floor walls.

A north-east orientation supplies the large living zones with ample natural light and the cooling effect of the sea breeze. Starting with the generous kitchen, a sophisticated monochrome scene with breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances and a mix of white and glass-front cabinetry, the luminous spaces flow across dining and lounge areas to the sensational wrap-around balcony. Space and light are in full supply out here, with distinct zones to allocate to al fresco dining, barbecue cooking or sun-soaked siestas for recharging after a morning at the beach.

Each bedroom is appointed with robes, contemporary colours and teeming light, while the updated bathroom continues the crisp white scheme across the separate bath and frameless glass shower with both rain and rail rose heads.

Solid and sturdy, the cleverly designed block sits amongst impeccably kept grounds which cast an indelible first impression in this peaceful street. As though to tick off all the must-haves for a beachside investment or first home, secure undercover parking, storage area, intercom entry and internal laundry are prized details, while the awesome position just metres from Dee Why Village and beach is a standout feature all on its own.
