24 Golf Parade, Manly, NSW 2095

A labour of love two years in the making and crafted with a professional’s eye for detail, this original c1915 weatherboard cottage has been meticulously reimagined into a modern work of art. Completely stripped back and reassembled with creative
indoor/outdoor design dynamics and a passive eco ethos, its bright and breezy interiors are gilded in a harmonious interplay of upcycled period detailing and pared-back coastal designer styling. Graced with 3.2m ceilings and blackbutt flooring, this single level residence features a sweeping open floor living and dining space flowing seamlessly to a north rear garden sanctuary with private level lawn, a separate studio retreat and an entertainers’ deck with an outdoor kitchen. Placed on 366sqm and screened by mature tropical gardens, it is nestled within the peaceful confines of the exclusive, highly sought after “Manly Flat” - just a 5-minute level stroll from Manly Andrew “Boy” Charlton Swim Centre, Harris Farm, local shops, delis/eateries and Queenscliff Beach.
