1/23 Quinton Road, Manly

Designed and proportioned like a semi, this c1904 Federation apartment has been masterfully reimagined by renowned interior designer Jillian Dinkel to create a residence of rare grandeur, sophistication and style. Showcasing an exquisite fusion of refined period detailing and premium designer fixtures and finishes, its generous yet streamlined layout enjoys a northerly aspect and flows effortlessly onto a common northeast terrace basking in sunshine, summer sea breezes and captivating harbour and ocean views. A bespoke, low-maintenance lifestyle sanctuary for professionals, downsizers or young families, it is peacefully positioned on the exclusive Western Hill, just a short stroll from Manly Beach, the city ferry terminal and the cosmopolitan village hub abuzz with vibrant cafes and restaurants.
