Soft elevation on the high side of Lemnos Parade gifts this Torrens title duplex a wonderful sense of privacy and magnificent views of Merewether Beach and across the city to Mount Sugarloaf. As the sun dips below the horizon, your favourite retreat will undoubtedly become the upper level verandah, where you can unwind and enjoy the spectacle with your favourite cocktail in hand. Inside, the home is staged over two wonderfully spacious levels atop its double garage and generous under house storage. The open plan living area, accented by timber floors and plantation shutters, encompasses an island kitchen featuring all the storage and prep space you will need. Glass stacker doors open to a private garden, the perfect spot for alfresco dining when family and friends drop by. Discreetly tucked away behind double doors find the oversized master suite with walk-in robe and ensuite, a perfect haven with no stairs to climb. Upstairs is where you will find two remaining and equally large bedrooms served by the main bathroom, plus access to the sun-kissed verandah. Ducted air conditioning upstairs and downstairs. This tightly held pocket positions you within walking distance of swimming and surfing at either Bar or Newcastle beaches, picnics at King Edward Park, the famous Bogey Hole for refreshing dip, and coffee and dining on Darby Street.
