5/12 Fairlight Street, Manly NSW 2095

Central locations don't come much better than this. With Fairlight beach practically on the doorstep and Manly Wharf only a seven-minute walk away, this immaculate apartment is well positioned to allow open access to the fabulous lifestyle Manly offers its residents.

On the second floor of a boutique brick block of nine, this is a chic and contemporary residence that will excite investors and homeowners who want to buy close to the action.

The neutral palette and wide and expansive windows positioned on two sides of the living area make this an incredibly light and rejuvenating space. Open-plan living design maximises space and allows easy movement between living, dining and kitchen. And a door opens to a large wraparound balcony with views of the harbour, the perfect spot for a cup of tea and a catch up when friends pop around.

Tucked away from the living space, the updated kitchen will be a pleasure to cook in with new electric cooktop, a sleek white counter and internal laundry facilities.

The spacious main bedroom is equipped with expansive built-ins and a ceiling fan, while the second bedroom is the perfect size for a younger child or even as a home office.

Demonstrating designer flair, the bathroom includes a gorgeous frameless shower screen and pairs sparkling white wall tiles with soothing grey floor tiles.

An undercover carport will make life a little easier, although you won't need to use the car at the weekend. Being so close to Manly, it will be a case of swinging a towel and a bag over your shoulder, and heading to the beach on foot.
