*This terrace offers a discerning buyer a unique opportunity to own and enjoy the beachside lifestyle. So close, you can hear the waves and appreciate the views of the ocean from the top-floor of this three level town-home. With the added bonus of being low-maintenance, the property offers true beachside living.

*Two private and enclosed courtyards located off the ground floor living area allow you to move easily between indoors and out. Relaxed entertaining alfresco or a private spot to read the paper or enjoy a coffee – it’s up to you. A well thought-out layout maximizes the use of space and ensures living here is easy.

*A large recessed window in the combined living and dining area captures light and serves to create space. A newly renovated kitchen with Caesar stone bench-tops, large pantry with appliance shelf and European stainless steel appliances is efficient and functional. A set of double bi-folding doors leads through to the private and enclosed front courtyard, with another set of sliding doors opening off the kitchen area to access the rear entertaining area. Enjoy summer barbeques here after a day at the beach and in the cooler months, catch the warm afternoon sun.

*On the first floor upstairs are two bedrooms, both with built-ins, and a bathroom renovated in neutral earthy tones contains an integrated laundry. Again space is efficiently used. The top floor of the terrace has a further two bedrooms, one with built-ins, and a new bathroom. The main bedroom on the top floor opens to a balcony with a serene outlook over nearby Norfolk Pines and the ocean beyond. The fourth bedroom on this level also has access to a balcony.

*Being in the bustling Manly CBD you’ll be able to simply trip outside the front door to the beach, numerous restaurants, cafes or bars. The wharf is only a five minute walk yet this home is fortunate to have access to a secure undercover car space with additional lock up storage.

*Currently owned by an architect, meticulous planning and thought has gone into designing a practical home. There is well organised use of space, an effortless flow between indoor and outdoor zones, plenty of bedrooms and the option to convert one to a study. Being in a prime position, for the astute buyer or savvy investor, this would provide an enviable beachside address and a terrific opportunity right in the centre of Manly and only one street back from the beach.
