Auction Saturday 25 May 2024

FIND. This elegant P&O-style home rests in a very special and truly idyllic reserve-side setting, with back-gate access directly onto Manly Lagoon. The unmistakable curved-wall and rendered façade with front balcony connect the design to its rich history, while the interiors model high ceilings, and light and airy rooms with grand proportions. Beyond the gate in the backyard, you can feel the serenity of Manly Lagoon, with birdlife, water and trees filling your view.

LOVE. Lakeside Crescent is a tightly-held enclave with a friendly community of families and a unique northern beaches lifestyle. It provides a protected and peaceful environment surrounded by public reserves and beaches, yet the delights of Manly are just a level stroll away. This home has outstanding bones so keen renovators will recognise the enormous potential to restore it to its former glory whilst capitalising on a premium parcel of land.
- Dual-living areas provide flexibility, with a spacious lounge room feeding into a dining area to the front, and a separate open-plan living zone to the rear offering an alternative, more casual space to relax or entertain.
- Sunny east-facing backyard features easy-care gardens, an open entertainer's patio and a sparkling in-ground swimming pool.
- Step through the back gate and directly onto public reserve, where you can float down the lagoon on paddle boards to Queenscliff Beach.
- The updated kitchen with stone counters, gas cooking, timber cabinets and a dishwasher is positioned to easily service both living areas.
- All bedrooms are over-sized, whilst the master bedroom offers an adjoining sitting area/study, lagoon views, plus an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe.
- Well-presented family bathroom with a bathtub and separate shower.
- Single lock-up garage with adjoining workshop/storage room and extensive driveway parking space.

LIVE. This idyllic, tucked-away location allows you to walk to the beach and into Manly, whilst also enjoying complete privacy, true tranquillity, and sublime outlooks of nature. Surrounded by a number of public reserves and playing fields, you can take a level stroll through Queenscliff Lagoon Park, where you can stop for a swim at Queenscliff Beach, or follow the path all the way into Manly. Also close by is the Andrew Boy Charlton swimming pool, Harris Farm for groceries, and express bus services to the city.
