THE DEAL
Steeped in original Federation charm and carrying the quiet dignity of a bygone era, this ground-floor apartment in the landmark "ALTIORA" building offers something increasingly rare in Manly, genuine character, a private courtyard garden, and a canvas for those with vision. Set on one of the suburb's most coveted streets, just minutes from the sand and the village, it's a classic Northern Beaches find waiting for its next chapter.
Beyond the leaded glass entry door, the apartment unfolds with generous proportions and an effortless sense of space. Ornate plaster ceiling roses, intricate decorative cornices, and gleaming polished hardwood floors set the tone throughout, original period detail that simply can't be replicated. The separate living and dining rooms flow easily between each other, anchored by beautiful timber floors and bathed in natural light from wide street-facing windows.
A charming sunroom extends the living footprint, with stone tile floors and a wall of windows opening out to the private courtyard below, an unexpectedly generous outdoor space framed by freshly landscaped garden beds, established roses, and a sandstone flagstone terrace enclosed by rendered brick walls. It's a rare and tranquil retreat in the heart of Manly.
The kitchen and original teal-tiled bathroom retain their mid-century character and present a genuine renovation opportunity, while the bedrooms are well-sized with excellent natural light and that unmistakable old-home sense of calm.
Set within a well-maintained full-brick building of just a handful of apartments, "ALTIORA" carries real architectural presence and a proud sense of identity. All of this just moments from Manly's iconic beach, the ferry wharf, vibrant dining precinct, and the best of Northern Beaches living.
