4/115 Sydney Road, Manly NSW 2095

Masterfully marrying historic elegance with vogue contemporary details, this stunning home sets a new standard for low-maintenance seaside living.

Exquisitely appointed with breathtaking chandelier lighting in every room, plate rails lining the walls, soaring ceilings and white-washed timber floorboards, it exudes an endearing persona that is sympathetic to the building's 1915 era. Yet striking modern updates such as matte black tapware, subway tiling with dark grout and marble influences have this abode looking as though it belongs on the pages of an avant garde interior design magazine.

Tastefully renovated, it uses clean lines and frameless glass in the new bathroom, and handle-free soft-close joinery in the kitchen to create elegant spaces that still allow the property's standout period beauty to take centre stage.

Modern comfort is assured, with secure intercom entry, air-conditioning, substantial built-in joinery in both bedrooms, gourmet Miele appliances and cleverly concealed internal laundry facilities.

Poised in a solid boutique block brimming with historic significance, this exquisite home occupies a world-class address, just steps from vibrant Manly, its beaches, transport facilities and bustling café and nightspot culture, hosting the ultimate beachside lifestyle against a backdrop of period grace.
