Last Listing description (November 2025)

Architecturally conceived and constructed in 1956, 47 Fisher Street stands as an enduring example of Balgowlah Heights' timeless design - a home defined by craftsmanship, proportion and permanence. Held by one family since completion, it remains beautifully intact: a rare combination of solid construction, style and future potential.

More than just a property, this is a chapter of Balgowlah Heights history - where kids learned to swim in the pool, where birthdays and Christmases filled the rooms with laughter. Nearly seventy years later, it stands ready for its next custodian to continue the story - whether through a sensitive restoration or a contemporary redesign.

The Details that Matter
This is an untouched gem - original in detail yet iconic in design. The newly completed architectural concept drawings demonstrate how easily this home could evolve - adding volume, light, and modern flow while honouring its defined bones. For renovators, it's a designer-ready canvas with soul. For rebuilders, it's a premium, gently elevated block with the potential to become a showpiece. Either way, the foundations are rock solid and the scope to add value is immense.

The Craft and the Canvas
Every line of this home speaks to an era of design clarity - long horizontals, deep eaves, and a grounded connection to landscape. The opportunity now lies in refining rather than replacing: expanding glass, elevating finishes, introducing new rhythm while preserving its character. For those with an architectural eye, this is a residence ready to be reinterpreted - a structure with soul, scale, and story.

A suite of concept drawings re-imagines the home for contemporary life - expanding living zones, introducing spatial flow, and amplifying light without compromising its architectural integrity. These concepts showcase how originality and innovation can coexist, offering a clear blueprint for the next custodian to create something extraordinary whilst capturing expansive north east views to Manly Cove and beyond.

Why You'll Love the Location
Positioned one street back from Forty Baskets Beach and the Manly to Spit coastal walk, Fisher Street sits in the heart of Balgowlah Heights' most coveted enclave. Wander to harbourside tracks, Tania Park, or the village café scene within minutes, with Manly's beaches, dining, and ferries just down the hill. It's a lifestyle defined by connection, community, and calm.

This isn't just a home - it's a story waiting for its next chapter.

47 Fisher Street, Balgowlah Heights - timeless, solid, and ready to evolve.
