Commanding a prized position on a plateau right by Tania Park, just above the picturesque Forty Basket Beach, this substantial and versatile contemporary marvel is magnificently poised to capture postcard-perfect views over Manly Cove and Manly Wharf to the village and the ocean. Superbly appointed across two floors, it is cleverly designed to offer flexible whole-floor living options for two families and spectacular indoor/outdoor entertaining venues. Key features include an enormous living space, formal and casual dining rooms, a family room, a deluxe stone island kitchen, indulgent master suite and a large home office or seventh bedroom. One of the rare examples of properties in the area that enjoy a spectacular view from a large level block, this home is set on 860sqm with deep lawns and a sparkling pool. It rests in one of the area's most exclusive streets just a two minute stroll from city/Manly buses and Tania Park, a seven minute wander to Forty Baskets Beach and a 10 minute walk to the primary school.
