Set amidst leafy surrounds and overlooking parklands, this delightful home's atmosphere is that of a peaceful sanctuary, in spite of its central position that accesses all areas. Exhibiting a fabulous design across split-levels, it cleverly optimises space and a north-westerly aspect to keep living areas bright and lively, and distinguished from the tranquil sleeping areas upstairs. Set on the first floor of a solid block, it shares a stair well and entrance with only one other home, embellishing it with the air of a townhouse rather than apartment. A beautifully renovated kitchen is a scene of stone benchtops, stainless steel appliances and soft-close joinery, all in a contemporary neutral palette, while the generous living zones are bathed in light through floor to ceiling glass and sliding doors that lead outside. The roomy covered balcony is picture perfect for entertaining, barbequing, al fresco dining or afternoon siestas, and acts as a substantial extension of the available living space. Both bedrooms offer built-in robes, in close proximity to the bathroom with separate tub and shower. An internal laundry and undercover parking are commendable inclusions, cementing the home's appeal as an astute investment or parkside pad. With city transport, supermarkets and cafes all within a leisurely stroll, and the beach and Manly a brief ride away, this superb home comes complete with an enviable coastal existence.
