Held and cherished by the same family for more than 31 years, this warm and welcoming residence offers an increasingly rare opportunity to establish a lasting family home in one of Balgowlah Heights' most tightly held pockets.
Comfortable, homely and filled with the character that only comes from decades of genuine care, the property has a relaxed and familiar quality from the moment you arrive. It is a home shaped by family life inviting, practical and ready for its next owners to make it their own.
Generous proportions and abundant natural light define the home, with three well-sized bedrooms including a master suite with its own ensuite. The expansive living area is warmed by a log fireplace and captures beautiful morning light with sunrise views stretching towards Manly, while the substantial kitchen offers extensive cabinetry and ample benchtop space for everyday family living and entertaining. Outdoors, a large alfresco terrace flows to a level lawn, creating an inviting setting for relaxed gatherings, children and pets. Completing the property is an oversized double lock-up garage with excellent additional storage options, and large driveway which allows for off street parking for multiple cars.
Ernest Street is no longer one of Balgowlah Heights' hidden gems. This elevated aspect in particular has become a highly sought-after destination for families drawn to its peaceful community setting, proximity to Balgowlah Heights Public School and effortless access to the everyday conveniences of Balgowlah Heights Village.
From here, children can walk to school, while morning coffee, groceries and relaxed local dining are only a short stroll away. The village brings together the community favourites that make daily life so easy, including IGA, Mrs Jones the Baker and a welcoming collection of neighbourhood cafés.
After more than three decades in the one family, this much-loved home now presents a special opportunity to secure a genuine foothold in a location where properties are closely held and family memories are made for generations.
