1/13 Wood Street, Manly NSW 2095

This stunning art deco apartment will not be short of admirers. Superbly located on the hill, just a short walk from Manly Cove, it offers a substantial and easy flow floor plan with gorgeous period features. High ceilings, detailed plasterwork, and leadlight windows in the foyer, it has all the grace of its era but all the space and convenience of easy modern day living.

The functional layout begins with a reception area, cloakroom and a long sweeping hallway enhanced with solid hardwood floors. A spacious combined living and dining room sits at the front of the apartment with big windows that flood the room with natural light. An elegant decorative mantelpiece draws the eye and adds a lovely layer of sophisticated charm.

The enormous kitchen is immaculate and offers exciting scope for renovation projects in the future. The ultra-modern bathroom and WC have undergone a sleek renovation to a chic contemporary style with the bathroom featuring luxe dual sinks, floor to ceiling tiles and premium fittings.

Both the bedrooms are generous with the king size master featuring wall-to-wall BIRS.

The showstopper is the spectacular rooftop terrace that overlooks the Manly Harbour. It's a purpose built entertaining area with built-in BBQ's, an expansive deck with tables and chairs, and a roof to shield you from the sun. It's available to everyone in the building with the option to book for private parties. New Year's Eve is sorted.

On the ground floor of a security block of just twelve, with an easy stroll to the cafés and beaches, it's a little slice of Manly paradise. There are excellent eateries, bars, shops, and recreation to choose from and the ferry is top of the list for a relaxed commute to work. This Eastern Hill charmer is hard to beat.
