An entertainer's dream with seamless indoor-outdoor flow, 43 Polkinghorne Drive is the kind of home where summer living feels effortless.

The generous kitchen (loaded with bench space and storage) connects beautifully to the dining area and two separate living rooms, making it easy for families to spread out while still staying connected. From the kitchen, living spaces and balcony, you'll love the peaceful bush outlook paired with distant sea views - a calming, coastal backdrop that feels private and relaxing.

Slide the doors and step out to an expansive, sun-soaked deck with a dedicated BBQ area - the ultimate spot for long lunches, sunset dinners and hosting friends. From here, the backyard flows straight onto a fully fenced large and flat lawns, offering a safe space for kids and pets to run free.

Inside, the master bedroom gives you a private retreat with its own ensuite; there are three other 3 good sized bedrooms on the same level, so everyone has their own space. Serving these three bedrooms is a family bathroom upstairs, and day-to-day practicality is covered by a separate, large laundry with excellent storage.

Adding a touch of resort luxury, the indoor-outdoor spa makes after-beach soaks and weekend wind-downs feel like a mini holiday.

Downstairs, a rumpus / multi-use room extends your options-think second lounge, teen zone, home office or guest overflow, making the home potentially a 5 bedrooms home if needed. The rumpus area opens to a second garden, that's tailor-made for a trampoline or extra play space. Completing this level is the bonus of an additional bathroom with shower, toilet and vanity perfect for flexibility and convenience.

Practical needs are covered with a huge garage and under-house storage, ideal for surf boards, rods and all the beach gear. With plenty of parking options, there is space for a boat or caravan, plus street parking available for guests.

Location-wise, it's classic Manly convenience: about 900m to Big Manly Beach, walking distance to Whangaparāoa School and College, and close to the Whangaparaoa Plaza for cafes, groceries and everyday errands. With three beaches nearby, weekend plans practically make themselves-morning swims, fishing missions, coastal walks and a bit of bird-spotting on tap.

If you're after a cheerful, family home where sun, space and lifestyle come standard, this one's ready to love from day one.

Tempted? You should be.
