2 Boyle Street , BALGOWLAH NSW 2093
Historic Landmark Mansion - Huge 1600sqm Allotment
This incredible residence, built around 1900, offers a grandeur and scale rarely seen. Untouched for decades it provides an opportunity to renovate to return the property to its former glory.

It is highlighted by all the features of its era from high patterned ceilings to amazing timber fretwork throughout. The formal entertaining rooms of an oversized sitting room and formal dining room opening from the wide entrance hall are a sight to behold.

The property is presently a 2 storey full brick home with 2 attached flats opening to the remnants of a grass tennis court. There are some views of the Harbour where you can watch the Manly ferry glide by.

There are 7 bedrooms, a study, a reading room and a verandah spanning 3 sides of the house. Two additional structures are garages and a work shop or storage. The proportions of the rooms and the property itself is simply breathtaking. The potential it offers is astounding.

It is nestled above North Harbour where it enjoys privacy and seclusion. It is only metres to the foreshore walkway into Manly and an easy stroll to the Balgowlah Shopping Centre, schools and buses.

History abounds as you wander through this property. Originally known as “The Lookout”, Willyama Avenue was its driveway to its coach-house which is now No 8 Boyle Street. The property has undergone name changes and was once a school from 1925 to the second world war.

It is time now for this wonderful estate to begin the next phase of its journey..... and it could be yours!
