Opportunities like this don’t come around too often. In original condition and on a sunny level block, this cottage and land parcel presents the perfect chance to craft a dream home. It’s in a prime family-friendly location on the beaches with excellent schools and the new B-Line bus service all within handy walking distance.

The existing cottage has the warmth of a cherished family home and offers tantalising renovation potential throughout. It is functional with a versatile floor plan, high ceilings, two separate living areas, large light-filled rooms and a delicious north facing aspect to the rear. There is also a level garden with statuesque trees that provide privacy, shade and natural beauty.

If starting from scratch is on the cards with a new tailored made home for the family the land parcel offers a superb canvas with easy access for construction, generous proportions and a sunny north facing aspect to capitalise on (STCA). On such a big block you could consider adding a granny flat or studio to maximise your investment.

For the kids, Manly Vale Public School is the local catchment with excellent St Kieran’s and Mackellar Girls also nearby. World-class beaches are a short drive away, and for stunning bushwalks and a refreshing dip in summer, Manly Dam is just a quick walk over the hill.

Superbly placed and packed with potential, it’s a fantastic opportunity. It’s time to get the plans ready for your dream home.
