Defined by light, airy spaces and a flexible layout that features a self-contained garden flat, this elegant character home is a unique offering in the heart of Fairlight. Within easy walking distance of Manly and harbourside beaches and with buses practically on the doorstep, it features an abundance of sophisticated indoor and outdoor living, all styled to perfection with classic elegance. Sitting on a sandstone base, the gabled brick and weatherboard façade with cast iron lacework paints a captivating picture. Here, a north-facing verandah provides a stunning district panorama while also overlooking a completely enclosed and child-friendly lawn with a sweet Frangipani for shade. Part of the beauty of this stunning home is the cozy corners and nooks that appear at every turn. At once fresh and welcoming, the easy-flow living space is set with timber floors and high-end appointments in the kitchen that includes a porcelain sink, 5-gas burner cooktop and ILVE oven. One bedroom and adjoining bathroom are positioned downstairs, while two generous bedrooms are upstairs – the master with its own north-facing balcony. To the rear, a fully self-contained section of the house has internal access to the main house but also has its own entrance and direct access to an enchanting rear garden with covered alfresco terrace. With a generous bedroom, a fully-equipped CaesarStone kitchen with dishwasher and induction cooktop and a full bathroom with laundry facilities, this luxurious extension can be used as a potential income stream, or as part of a flexible living arrangement with your extended family. Other notable highlights include a lock-up garage and an abundance of internal storage, as well as the space for a study.
