Showcasing a string of period features, this striking double-fronted federation home is a true rarity and beautifully captures the essence of yesteryear, while delivering contemporary spaces for modern-day living.

Archways, tessellated tiles, sash windows, celestial ceilings adorned with rosettes, fireplaces and traditional hardwood floors headline this stunning home, while generous interiors ensure an abundance of social spaces are on offer both inside and outside.

The heart of this home is the main level with its contemporary kitchen which flows through to your everyday living and dining areas. Open, bright and airy, the living area extends outside, courtesy of an undercover terrace that serves this house beautifully and offers up the perfect space for summer dinner parties or drinks on the deck. East-facing, this alfresco space ushers natural light and refreshing ocean breezes throughout the home.

The large second living area features a stunning original fireplace (one of four in the home), whilst the separate study area is conveniently located making it ideal for kids to do their homework or for parents to work from home.

Accommodation comprises three double bedrooms with a family bathroom on the main level. All with built-in robes, two with fireplaces and one with an ensuite, whilst upstairs the parents retreat features an impressive walk-in robe, ensuite and a balcony with ocean views. it’s a seaside sanctuary for parents to escape.

The icing on the cake is a wonderfully private backyard that caters to kids, pets and entertaining while requiring very little maintenance. Saturated in sunlight, it’s the ideal scene for BBQs or basking in the sun with a book in hand. The bonus lower level delivers a convenient rumpus/media room for teenage kids, or perhaps the ideal spot to set up the home gym. Whilst the roof attic provides generous storage space for an abundance of items.

A much-desired and prized asset is the LUG that provides rear access to Ocean Lane for travel further afield, however you can leave the car at home and be down to Manly beach in 15 mins on foot, or 5 mins by bicycle. Close enough to enjoy the magic of this iconic suburb, but far enough to enjoy peaceful and quiet surrounds. This spectacular home brings you the best of both worlds!
