Tucked in just one property from the oceanfront within, metres of the lapping shores of Cabbage Tree Bay, this exclusive freestanding, freehold residence has been meticulously renovated to provide a bespoke seaside sanctuary reminiscent of a French Riviera-style luxury villa. Crafted in a crisp white palette with a glass-embraced open floor layout capturing natural light, ocean scenes and cooling sea breezes, it opens effortlessly to a sun-drenched terrace and tranquil walled courtyards with a covered alfresco entertaining area. Placed on 316sqm of landscaped gardens requiring minimal upkeep, its prestigious and sublime setting is metres to the iconic Bower Cafe, Marine Parade and the access stairs to Cabbage Tree Bay, and only a four minute wander by the bay to secluded Shelly Beach or the rolling waves at world-famous Manly Beach.
