5/135 Sydney Road, Fairlight NSW 2094

With all the charm of its era, this Art Deco beauty 'Esperanza' is not only a head turner but presents an exceptional opportunity for investors or first home buyers alike. With a sunny balcony, exciting renovation scope and with the best of Manly on the doorstep, this gorgeous two bedroom apartment ticks all the boxes.

The light and bright interiors are enhanced with soft carpets throughout, fresh walls and irresistible period allure, such as the high ceilings. The living room features an ornamental fireplace and mantel, delivering old-world character, and the north-facing living room is awash with sunshine and natural light throughout the year. The adjoining balcony is a great spot to sit with friends and a glass of wine.

The kitchen and bathroom, both neat as a pin, are in well-maintained original condition. Ready to move into now they are also primed for their next chapter offering exciting renovation potential with endless possibilities.

Through the archway and running down the east side of the apartment are two double bedrooms. The large master features a gorgeous period style BIR and chic plantation shutters that are as eye-catching as they are practical. The second bedroom has views through to the harbourside Norfolk Pines and a small snapshot of the water.

An added bonus is the access to the shared rooftop terrace. With nearly 360-degree breathtaking views, it's a great spot for alfresco dining with friends or relaxing on a sun lounger. Another handy extra is the shared laundry facility with space for your own machine, that is conveniently located near the rooftop terrace for easy line drying.

In a beautifully maintained security building opposite Fairlight Village, this is an easy lifestyle location with everything you need at your fingertips. A fantastic find.
