Sandwiched between Balgowlah and Manly, Fairlight is a quiet surburb with a tiny shopping village. It is walking distance from Manly, the beach and all its amenities. Only slightly cheaper than Manly, Fairlight is popular with the young, couples, professionals, families and older residents. This is a hilly suburb. (More information below and to your left <<<)
If this suburb were a shoe, it would be a strappy sandal
Fairlight has plenty of older period homes and apartment blocks, some offering great views.
The small village shopping centre comes with a fire station. You know what that means… nice fire trucks!
Parking is not really an issue. The vibe: relaxed, calm, and great views. Shoe equivalent: strappy sandals with a small heel, thongs. Would suit: ages 20+, beach fans, young families, people who like being close to the centre of things, but not in it. Location: near beach. Postcode: 2094. Distance: 11km from the city centre. Direction: North East.
