*Situated in a prestigious Balgowlah Heights enclave and occupying a massive 758sqm (approx.) of level premium land, this landmark stately residence of full double brick construction presents an extremely rare opportunity to create your dream family home.

*Built in 1949 by a local builder and constructed from the finest materials and finishes, the current owners are only the second family to own the property. With a fluid layout set over two levels, the home has a stately façade and a winding brick paved drive that affords a commanding grandeur, establishing itself as one of the fine original homes of the area.

*The substantial grounds incorporate tranquil private gardens and level yard at the front and rear, perfect for a safe family environ. With a very private aspect at the rear overlooking the adjoining bowling greens, the idyllic north east facing aspect ensures bright airy interiors, and the elevated position takes full advantage from fresh sea breezes and stunning ocean views stretching to the coast and Manly.

*The period home offers the potential to modernize, extend or redevelop (STCA) in order to fully capitalise on the land size, exclusive position, and spectacular elevated outlook with picture perfect views to the ocean and surrounding area. Simply move in and enjoy the pristine position and space this home already affords, or make your own mark through renovations–there is plenty of room to expand!

*At the front of the property is a huge level yard with sandstone retained gardens that provide privacy and screening from the street. On entering the covered entry portico and formal reception hall, the original period features are immediately evident with high ceilings and stunning original Jarrah floors . The home has been revamped with modern contemporary finishes that have been perfectly blended with the period style.

*The fluid layout of the interiors creates separate “zoned” accommodation and living / entertainment areas. The main living, with a stunning hand carved sandstone feature fireplace, incorporates the dining area, while there is a further separate adjoining second living area or office. Large picture windows and French doors open directly to an alfresco entertaining terrace and generous level back yard looking over the bowling greens, with citrus and mango trees and enjoying deep ocean views to Manly & Queenscliff.

*Conveniently positioned directly off the main living and dining is a recently renovated contemporary gas kitchen with Miele and Bosch appliances, soft closing drawers, and unique oak benchtops, and convenient separate entrance from the front yard and garage. A separate laundry is located at the rear.

*The accommodation is located on the upper level and accessed via a beautiful Kauri Pine feature staircase. The bedrooms are all double sized and have unique curved feature ceilings, and are serviced by a family bathroom with separate shower and bath. A second guest WC is located off the reception hall. The third bedroom has an adjoining sitting room with small terrace that looks out to the stunning views, while also offering views to Mosman and Middle Harbour from the bedroom itself. The sitting room has the versatility to be utilized as a 4th bedroom, study or kid’s playroom.

*Perfectly positioned, it is only minutes to a choice of pristine harbour and coastal beaches and Manly’s vibrant café lifestyle, while the famous Spit to Manly harbour foreshore walk, beautiful Tania Park, and Balgowlah Heights Primary School are all a close level walking distance away. The express city bus is conveniently available at the end of the street.
