Tightly-held for the last 30 years, this classic weatherboard bungalow offers exciting possibilities on two separate titles totalling 1960sqm (approx). It’s located on the low side of sought-after Ralston Road and boasts a rear north aspect featuring scenic views encompassing Barrenjoey Headland, Lion Island, Broken Bay, Pittwater and the sparkling sands of Palm Beach.

Original homes on a level block of this size are rare, it also includes a self-contained flat and has remarkable scope to expand or redevelop (STCA). It was the holiday retreat of leading Sydney dermatologist, Dr Jean Mason-Johnson for many years and then her permanent home. Dr Johnson served with Australia’s armed forces during World War II and was awarded the Order of Australia in 2006.

The existing home is perfectly liveable and can be enjoyed now while planning to renovate or rebuild in the future. The home has spacious separate living and dining areas, three bedrooms with built-ins, a functional kitchen with adjoining laundry, and two main bathrooms plus a third bathroom next to the one-bedroom flat downstairs.

Blissfully quiet, immensely private and only minutes from peninsula beaches, shopping, schools and transport, this is unquestionably one of the best available opportunities to create a superb weekender or permanent family home in one of Sydney’s best lifestyle locations less than an hour’s drive to the city centre yet a million miles from care.
