'Pitwood' - sited perfectly on a sprawling, mostly usable 2,068sqm (approx.) north facing allotment is this classic waterside residence. While sizeable at just over half an acre, the private block has been planted with easy to maintain gardens so it's easy to manage. The magnificent water and bushland views are all encompassing and you will feel like you are living in a 'moving picture' as you take in the activities on the stunning waterway from the comfort of home. Rare near direct level access into the home is an attribute that is hard to find in this tranquil and picturesque locale. You are immediately greeted by the breathtaking views of Pittwater and the national park as soon as you enter the front door. Once inside you feel like you are enveloped into a big gentle hug of serenity, and you will appreciate the expansive water views from every room of the house with a spacious open plan living that opens to the sprawling sandstone terrace leading to a lovely sun drenched pool. Still showing hallmarks of its magnificent original glory days with finishes and architecture that belie its true age and established garden setting. Timber, big panes of glass and feature porthole windows create a luxury liner ambience. Ripe for renovation and further capitalisation to shine once again you will be amply catered for comfortably as you live while deciding on how best to revive this beauty. Astute purchasers may even consider future development of the site and those seeking additional accommodation options may wish to consider a granny flat (subject to council approval). Conveniently situated less than 200m to the waterfront where you will find a choice of cafes, marina and public transport nearby, yet elevated so that it is quiet and private. You are also an easy 4km drive into Mona Vale which is a vibrant shopping village with a selection of major grocery stores, specialty shops, cafes and restaurants not to mention the B-Line express bus service to the city centre. Filled with love and laughter for many years and enjoyed by four generations of the one family, now is your chance to acquire one of the northern beaches' most charming properties. An irreplaceable slice of history that can never be replicated... ** Extended Settlement Terms Available ** Disclaimer: All information contained herewith, including but not limited to the general property description, price and the address, is provided to LJ Hooker Mona Vale by third parties.
