6/78A Balgowlah Road, Balgowlah NSW 2093

Taking a central position within a vibrant and popular suburb, this two-bedroom apartment with exciting renovation potential offers an exceptional opportunity for investors and first home buyers where convenience is paramount.

This sunny residence is situated within a well-maintained double-brick apartment just around the corner from Stockland shopping centre, and footsteps from bus stops and local shops and cafes.

With easy-care floorboards and fresh coastal breezes that circulate throughout, the combined living and dining area gathers light that pours in from the east-facing balcony. With the sun beaming overhead, this will become your go-to spot for a relaxed cuppa in the morning.

The updated kitchen is decked out with stone countertops, sleek cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher. And an adjoining laundry is a welcome and convenient bonus.

The generous main bedroom offers mirrored built-ins, while the bathroom is in good original condition.

There's a single lock-up garage with extra storage space, which is good because you won't always need the car. It's close enough to dip in and out of Manly as you please, or explore the stunning harbourside vistas seen from the Fairlight boardwalk or the famous Manly to Spit walk.

You won't have to walk far to find good coffee, with a choice of good cafes on the high street. And city or Manly-bound buses pass by at the end of the road.
