Dazzling Opportunity With Exclusive Heights Address Owned by the same family for 52 years lies a languishing giant just waiting to be rediscovered. Commanding ocean and harbour glimpses and with a solid structure seldom seen these days, the home has all the right elements in place for an inspired makeover dreams are made of. Even from the outside, it's easy to visualise this property's exceptional future. The residence is flanked by a rear yard and level front gardens with a double garage reached via Woodland Street South. The solid brick exterior in excellent condition reflects the durability of the building. The sturdy foundations and structure continue to be evident inside capturing cooling ocean breezes on those long hot summer nights. Walking through the existing dwelling, it's difficult not to be overcome by the sheer dimensions, and the endless possibilities for reviving this stately home can begin to be understood. The downstairs floorplan lends itself to both formal and relaxed living options, huge separate dining room, three double bedrooms serviced by a bathroom, fourth bedroom or large home office, a second bathroom and a large kitchen zone located at the rear of the home, central to the living quarters and with access to the back yard. Upstairs, the imagination runs immediately to a palatial parent's retreat, complete with balcony and gorgeous distant water views both at the front and back gives a sense of openness. Further, a separate rumpus room has the dimensions to fulfill every child's playful dreams, while a tiled room hints at the perfect location for an elegant new bathroom. With such impressive family-sized proportions, a lifestyle to match is essential, and at this address, it is served up on a platter. Within zone and easy walking distance for Balgowlah Heights Primary School, it also has renowned Tania Park at the end of the street, and the delights of Clontarf Beach and all that Manly has to offer within a couple of minutes drive. A Village atmosphere is found at the Balgowlah Heights shops a short distance away, and an express city bus service collects you a couple of steps from your front door. Possessing all the fundamentals for a truly spectacular family home in one of the area's most coveted neighbourhoods, this extraordinary residence represents potential in its purest and most powerful form.
