Nestled in a whisper-quiet, leafy cul-de-sac with mesmerising 180-degree panoramas sweeping to the ocean, this c1925 semi has been innovatively transformed by multi-award-winning Sam Crawford Architects into a haven of luxurious liveability and Zen-like tranquillity in a prized Western Hill address. Designed to fully optimise its sunny northerly setting, the superbly appointed dual-level layout showcases a generous living and dining area flowing seamlessly to a sun-soaked entertainers' terrace with tranquil, far-reaching vistas. A deluxe open-plan stone kitchen overlooks the living space, while the indulgent master suite opens to a private north-facing terrace with breathtaking panoramas. A gas fireplace, ducted air conditioning and walls of retractable glass ensure year-round comfort while capturing the soothing summer sea breezes. Set on 304sqm of exquisitely landscaped gardens, the home features a private north-facing rear courtyard and a modern garden studio. It is superbly located within a short stroll of village shops, parks and Manly Aquatic Centre, and just a 10-minute walk to Manly Village, the primary school and iconic Manly Beach.
