37 Benalla Street, Manly QLD 4179

Superbly positioned in the heart of Manly village and perfectly elevated for panoramic bay views, this gorgeous character home comes to the market for the first time in 18 years. Boasting newly polished hardwood floors, ornate timber fretwork, stained glass windows and fresh paint on the exterior of the house.

We are currently experiencing a shortage of rental properties, the astute buyer will recognise the multiple opportunities this home represents. Zoned LMR, this large family home comes with complete separate dual living capabilities and could be utilised in multiple ways. Live upstairs and rent out downstairs (or visa versa) or Airbnb both levels as two separate units. With the increasing cost of electricity it's good to know this home is equipped with a 6.6KW solar system.

Upstairs consists of two bedrooms and one bathroom. Both rooms have 3.1m high timber panelled ceilings, traditional casement windows, VJ walls, air conditioning and fans.
The generous master bedroom includes a massive walk through robe which connects to a light filled ensuite. The bathroom has suspended his and hers vanity, wall to floor tiles, large walk in shower with frameless glass and separate toilet. The kitchen, dining and lounge area seamlessly blend together while double glass sliding doors draw you out to an impressive timber balcony. This is the perfect alfresco dining area with magnificent views over the village and beyond to the bay.

The downstairs level is connected via a beautiful timber staircase to a further 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom on the lower level is air-conditioned, with walk through robe and private ensuite. The compact kitchen has lovely timber cabinetry, free-standing oven and plenty of cupboard space. Here you will also find room for a dining table and sitting area. The huge rear deck is fabulous for entertaining and provides direct access to the fully fenced backyard. The home comes with a 5000lt rainwater tank, workshop space, downstairs laundry, and garden shed. There is also ample storage space under the house.

There is no need for a car here with a plethora of restaurants, cafes, Yacht clubs, public swimming pools, parks, miles of waterfront walkways, IGA, schools and train station all within a very easy stroll.
