75 Whistler Street, Manly NSW 2095

One of the last of its kind, this gorgeous freestanding beach bungalow has been stylishly enhanced for modern liveability and comes complete with DA approval for a magnificent three-storey designer haven just one street back from Manly Beach. Evoking the charm of yesteryear with high ceilings, timber flooring and cast-iron fireplaces, it also offers the modern refinements of a sleek gas kitchen, chic bathroom and ducted air conditioning. Nestled amid exquisitely landscaped tropical gardens with private, sun-drenched near-level rear lawns, it rests peacefully in a one-way street just a minute barefoot from the sand and surf, a three-minute wander to the glitz and glam of Manly’s vibrant village hub, and only six minutes to the city ferry terminal.
