Best Bits From the Vendor

"I moved to Torbay 38 years ago when it was a smallish suburb on the outskirts of the East Coast Bays, and it was then, as it is now, just a brilliant place to live. Having the local schools, Torbay shops, and the beaches so close by has made daily life so easy. What I've loved most about 68A is the quietness and total solitude when you want to retreat, but you still feel part of a great neighbourhood with lovely people and good vibes. I haven't lost the love for living here at all, it's just time for me to scale down to a smaller home that fits my needs now."

Lifestyle & Location

Glenvar Road sits right on the edge of the best coastal spots on the North Shore. You can walk to local bus stops and school routes, while Long Bay Village, Torbay shops, and Long Bay Beach are all just a couple of minutes away. It flies under the radar for convenience, giving you quiet, tucked-away living while keeping coastal walks, local schools, and morning coffees right at your fingertips.

A grounded, honest home offering an affordable entry into the Bays with genuine scope to personalize down the track. With the vendor committed to their next step, this is an opportunity that deserves a look.
