This split-level four-bedroom house backs directly on to bush nature reserve teeming with native birds and offers views due north across Pittwater up to Lion Island and Pearl Beach. The renovated living area offers a light-filled space that opens through full-height glass sliding doors to the generous covered deck. The new custom-built kitchen features ceramic bench tops and premium European cooktop and appliances. Three bedrooms above open to a north-facing balcony. On the other side of the house a versatile living area: home office and/or teenage retreat plus sound-proofed media room. A superb location only moments to Taylors Point Wharf and Clareville Beach, and 50m from the local bus stop. A short drive to Avalon or Newport Village, ocean beaches, yacht clubs, golf courses, schools, and express city buses. Or a half-hour traffic-free stroll to Avalon Village through the natural splendour of Angophora Reserve, with its entrance just a few steps away.
