21 Farnell Street, Curl Curl.

This is the one. Build your dream on this slice of paradise with an ocean view, just one street back from the beach. Live in or rent out while you wait for development approval, or renovate to revive this sleeping beauty. She has everything you need and more. All the basics, virtually untouched since the 1970s – as if teleported here from yesteryear – with a more recent kitchen. There's a dated but serviceable teen retreat or guest room attached to the back of the home, complete with its own kitchenette and ensuite. Step off the back deck and onto the lawn to explore the secret garden, past frangipanis, umbrella trees and moon rocks all the way to the back of this easy walk block – where you'll find a commanding vista that spans more than 120 degrees. The sunken rumpus room or workshop down below is another welcome surprise. Upstairs, bask in the warm glow of the sun streaming in through the front windows as you gaze at the headland. It's a short stroll down the lane across the road to the sand, just a couple of hundred metres away. Explore North or South Curl Curl surf beaches, ocean pools, laid-back coastal cafés, and picturesque headland walks. It's all within one of Sydney's most desirable beachside pockets. Minutes to schools, skateparks, and playing fields. Easy access to Dee Why, with express CBD and Manly buses running from the stop on Adams Street just a two-minute walk (150m) from your front door. - Coveted Curl Curl setting with boundless potential - A generous 647sqm block offering future promise - Renovate or rebuild for bespoke coastal living vision - Three-bedroom layout with opportunity to personalise - Attached teen retreat or guest room with kitchenette and ensuite - Original bathrooms with a dedicated laundry space - Large lock-up garage with workshop and rumpus - Add a second/third level to capture ocean views (subject to council approval) - Sun-kissed pool possible with space and scope (subject to council approval) - An easy stroll to the sand via a scenic public pathway - North and South Curl Curl beaches within easy reach - Ocean pool swims and picturesque headland walks - Laid-back cafés and casual eateries moments away - Close access to schools, skateparks and Manly buses
