An easy open floor plan flows perfectly to large level gardens with front and back alfresco entertaining areas, while inside sprawling levels reveal multiple living spaces, with an abundance of accommodation.

Situated on the quiet eastern side of Innes Road near a leisurely cycle track leading to Queenscliff Beach, stroll to local shops, cafes, parks, schools and city-bound buses with Balgowlah Stocklands, Warringah Mall and Manly just around the corner.

High ceilings with skylights and refreshing neutral interiors create a relaxed sunlit atmosphere throughout, evident in the open-plan kitchen, living and dining. Versatile with a wide open layout, the area artfully retains definition with the functional features of an island kitchen, a gas fireplace and large glass bi-folds opening to the huge deck and backyard beyond.

Calling for child’s play and social summer soirees, the backyard with its covered deck also contains a level lawn, a timber swing set, a raised vegie garden and space for a pool already approved, while at the front of the house the expansive tiered deck is framed by a tropical garden.

Keep an eye on the kids from the gourmet island kitchen featuring hand-crafted insitu concrete bench tops, ample storage, semi-integrated appliances and a freestanding, stainless steel 6-burner gas stove/oven.

With five bedrooms and a dedicated study that could be converted into a sixth, the accommodation options are as generous as they are extensive. Three, including a contained-style master with ensuite and WIR, open onto north-facing balconies through French doors.

The ground floor bathroom has combined bath/shower and an integrated laundry; while the second level and the master ensuite house the recently renovated facilities of stunning ceiling showers with frameless glass recesses.

A sitting nook at the front door and a rumpus room at the highest point of the house provide additional places for rest and recreation; while features exuding style and comfort abound in timber floors, glass louvre windows, new carpets, ceiling fans, in-roof and cupboard storage, rainwater tanks, a net positive solar system, an oversized remote LUG with dual access, a workshop, further storage and a carport providing additional undercover parking.
