This incredible-value ground floor apartment is in Mei Chih or The Wedding Cake as the locals affectionately call it. It enjoys a spectacular setting amongst beautifully-kept gardens and is just minutes' walk from Fairlight's assorted shops and from Fairlight beach & ocean swimming pool. The bus stop lies just across the road and a 5 minute walk brings you to the ferry and the heart of Manly. Live the Manly lifestyle - in the quiet, handy seclusion of Fairlight!

- Being raised ground floor, the apartment benefits from increased security. No steps! Level entry to lift from both garage and from street.
- Enormous level lawn & paved garden area located adjacent to the apartment, with direct, level access straight from the home. This apartment has SOLE direct access to this common property area, effectively making it as if it were a private area!
- Spacious entertaining terrace off the lounge/dining room, offering delightful views to the Harbour and South Head, making it a perfect spot for alfresco wining and dining with friends.
- Sundrenched North facing patio means sun, sun, sun all day! And the patio flows straight on to the enormous lawned garden, giving you the feeling of being in your own huge yard!
- The generous living room and adjacent dining room both benefit from the beautiful garden and harbour outlook.
- A feature you don't find in newer units these days is a laundry big enough to be a store room, ironing room and general utility area all in one.
- Then there's the entry hall, which is as big as a bedroom and offers an elegant and very stylish entry to your new home.
- Overall, the apartment is in good condition although the last makeover was quite a few years ago, so an opportunity exists to create something truly special from this solid, spacious older-style apartment.

This is your unique opportunity to buy into a prestigious and exclusive apartment building, with so many rarely-found add-ons. Do not miss this one!

History

Fairlight takes its name from Fairlight House built by Henry Gilbert Smith on land he bought in 1853 from John Parker who had received a land grant in 1837. The house was named after Fairlight, East Sussex, a historic village in Hastings on the south coast of England.
Fairlight was originally only the area near the beach where Fairlight house, once stood and the suburb at the top of the hill was called Red Hill, due to the pre-World War II red gravel surface of Sydney road.
