2/144 Ocean Street, Narrabeen NSW 2101

Fitting the beachside brief to perfection, this alluring apartment packs a punch in both the lifestyle and features departments. Just one block back from the beach and enjoying ocean views to boot, it is fitted out with all the requirements for a comfortable home base or savvy investment.

Fronted by a large balcony that extends living spaces coastward, the second-floor home is tastefully refreshed with grey-washed oak floorboards and a neutral palette. The renovated kitchen is a picture of utilitarian style, with glossy no-handle joinery, a combination of subway and Spanish feature tiling, stone benchtops and gas stainless steel appliances. In a masterstroke of layout optimisation, gorgeous custom joinery has been thoughtfully incorporated into the bright interiors. A floating corner dining nook, wall-hung timber-framed entertainment unit and a built-in breakfast bar on the balcony all inject instant convenience and classic styling, adeptly suited to the home's surrounds.

Bedrooms are liberal in their sizing - both stocked with built-in robes and ceiling fans, the master with ocean views and the second with a small balcony. An internal laundry and lockup garage are prized inclusions that match the needs of a sand-to-front door existence.

This boutique block is positioned for convenience and an endless holiday atmosphere, with a bus interchange, village shops, restaurants and the outdoor delights of the Narrabeen Lakes area all within metres of the home.
