Positioned on the coveted flats of Manly, just metres from the shoreline, this gorgeous home presents an exceptional coastal holding on a large freehold site, complete with private beach access on the title. This is a tightly held address where families settle in and rarely leave. The setting alone is compelling, but what unfolds beyond the gates is something truly special.
The grounds are nothing short of remarkable. Expansive, park-like lawns framed by mature trees and lush hedging create a private oasis that feels worlds away from the everyday. With a history of hosting wedding celebrations and special family functions, the garden speaks to scale, beauty and versatility. Seamless indoor-outdoor flow connects multiple living zones to a generous veranda and the manicured rear grounds, delivering effortless entertaining and relaxed family living in equal measure. Spanning approximately 330sqm, the residence offers space in abundance. Two distinct lounge areas cater to both grand entertaining and intimate evenings by the fireplace, while the light-filled kitchen and dining domain features soaring gabled ceilings and skylights that draw the sun deep into the home. Polished timber floors anchor the lower level, and while there is scope to further enhance and modernise, the home is immediately comfortable and impeccably maintained inside and out.
Upstairs, four generous bedrooms enjoy leafy outlooks and beautiful natural light, creating a serene, almost treehouse-like ambience. The master suite feels like a private retreat, complete with walk-in wardrobe, ensuite, and double doors opening to a sun-soaked north-facing deck overlooking the gardens. A separate office and studio at the rear provides flexibility for those working from home, running a business, or seeking additional accommodation options.
With a boundary to Ardlui Avenue, the property presents a unique opportunity for those thinking beyond the ordinary. Subject to council approval, the potential for separate access, extra parking, or a secondary dwelling adds real depth here. Whether it's accommodating more, creating income, or simply adding value over time, this is a feature worth your attention.
Large coastal sites of this calibre, in this location, are increasingly rare. A substantial family home with private beach access, extraordinary grounds and genuine potential to add value, all in one of Manly's most sought-after streets. This is a lifestyle opportunity not to be missed.
