17 Herbert Street Malabar, NSW 2036

On the market for the first time in 108 years, this much-loved original home has been cherished by three generations of the same family and remains one of Malabar's most tightly held addresses. A truly special offering on an extraordinary 715sqm (approx) parcel, the home captures a perfect north-east aspect that sweeps from Maroubra to Malabar. Ocean and national park views form a beautiful backdrop to daily life, with the home offering immediate comfort and a rare sense of space and openness that is an increasingly rare find in the Eastern Suburbs. With its large block and wide frontage, there's also immense potential to explore options for a fresh new design (STCA). Nestled in a community minded neighbourhood where kids still play in the street, the home is located just 400m to Malabar Beach and close to village shops, primary schools, boat ramps, snorkelling, the rolling greens of Randwick Golf Club and scenic bushwalking trails.
