Beyond a striking, white-panelled façade, this freshly reimagined bungalow unfolds into an enchanting resort-like haven designed to harmoniously integrate its timeless coastal charm with the very latest in contemporary luxury. Crisp white styling, enhanced by stone and timber finishes, sets the scene throughout a bright and breezy layout centred on living and dining areas wrapping around a sleek stone kitchen, with easy flow to a covered rear entertainers' terrace and the private, near-level rear lawn. Set on 556sqm of exquisitely landscaped gardens, with a second covered alfresco and a cabana/gym overlooking a sparkling solar-heated pool, its tranquil family-friendly setting is a few steps from buses to Manly and the city express, a four-minute stroll to a café and Tania Park, and less than a 10-minute walk to Balgowlah Heights Public School, North Harbour Reserve and Forty Baskets Beach.
