20 Vista Avenue, Balgowlah Heights

Manicured near-level lawns and beautifully landscaped gardens give insight into what lies beyond the façade of this immaculate full brick bungalow with its light-flooded layout enhanced with the clean lines of chic Scandi styling, premium appointments and layers of surprises. Designed for streamlined family living and spectacular alfresco entertaining, it features sunlit living and dining spaces with leafy northerly views, sun-drenched terraces, an outdoor hot tub and a modern sauna in the basement. Placed on a gently sloping 689sqm parcel of land bordered by three streets with only one neighbour, its leafy central setting is only footsteps from Ball Boy Cafe, city buses and Bareena Park tennis courts and a short stroll to the primary school, Tania Park and Castle Rock Beach.
