Manly Beach is a mecca for sailing enthusiasts of all types and those with a passion for outdoor sports. It is a short, level stroll to the fabulous local primary school, close to Whangaparaoa College and Intermediate and an easy level stroll to the bowling club, tennis clubs, bridge club and netball courts.

The community feel here is second to none as is the holiday vibe this highly sought-after location still retains. Whether walking your dog or strolling the beach, picnicing in the park, fishing, or popping up to the local Manly Village for a coffee, leisurely brunch, or a great margarita, there is something here for everyone to enjoy.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity as properties such as this seldom come to market.
