11/3 Tower Street, Manly NSW 2095

The knockout views from this stunning harbourside apartment will take your breath away. From the 'castle on the hill' and over to the heads, it's a view that is framed beautifully by new glass doors that stretch the length of the living room. It will be hard to tear yourself away for work.

Occupying the private top floor position of a low rise block, it has undergone a clever transformation, and everything has been thought of. From the eye-catching plantation shutters through to little comfort touches such as the brand new ceiling fans and luxuriously soft carpet.

It has high ceilings throughout that add to the sense of space, and the well-designed layout starts with a long hallway that offers two generous bedrooms with BIRS and a bathroom with convenient laundry facilities. But it is all leading to the show-stopping finale - the light-filled, open-plan living space with views from every corner.

The kitchen will also catch the eye. It has an on-trend monochrome colour palette and a sleek stone breakfast bar. And when friends drop by, the balcony is a great spot with the glass doors sliding back to extend the living space.

There is a pretty park across the road, dappled with Norfolk Pines and offering easy access into the heart of Manly. Handy off-street parking is included, and with the views from the apartment straight out to the harbour, it's easy to keep an eye on the action on the water. So, if work is on the cards, you can time your commute perfectly as you watch your ferry come in.
