5/3 Manning Road, Double Bay NSW 2028

Gracing the top floor of 'Chesterton' a grand boutique Art Deco security building of just six, this elegant house-like apartment spans a vast 144sqm. Exuding a timeless appeal, it's accessed via a secluded palm tree-lined laneway off Manning Road, giving it the feeling of an oasis right in the heart of Double Bay.

Currently configured as two large bedrooms with built-in robes along with a sitting room, it could easily be transformed into a three-bedroom residence. Its adjoining lounge and dining rooms are wonderfully spacious, providing abundant room for entertaining. Its gas kitchen is equally as spacious while its fully tiled bathroom with a bath has a traditional Art Deco flavour.

Set on the north-western corner well back from the road, it enjoys a lovely leafy outlook, a guest WC and parking. It's also blessed with a host of classic features such as soaring ceilings with ornate cornices, arched windows and a magnificent common entry foyer with ornate leadlight windows. Lovely as is, there is still scope to add your own touches if desired. Double Bay's revitalised dining precinct is mere footsteps from its door.
