Secret Hideaway on the Beach

This is a very special home in a very special location - characterised by the European influence of the current owners with the extensive use of natural timber, exposed beams, and a décor that complements the local environment.

Set in a microclimate sheltered by the dunes there is direct beach access from the yard, and panoramic views toward the Port Hills and coastline from each of the three balconies with easterly, westerly and northerly aspects opening from the upstairs living areas. The central stairwell is enveloped by the spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, lounge, and family areas which open to sheltered decks overlooking the pool, lawn and gardens. Modifications to the original design have formed a large sunny master bedroom, with the second bedroom and main bathroom also occupying the second storey.

On the lower level a large rumpus/games room has an adjoining alcove with built-in bedroom furniture, and there is also a second bathroom with separate toilet. A double internal access garage spans the full width of the dwelling with a central service area and storage provision under the stairs. Additional vehicle parking is provided with a single carport, and attached 6x3m open storage barn also houses the pool filtration system.

After many happy years raising her family in this recreational playground the owner is relocating to be close to family. She is hopeful that the new owners will get as much pleasure from living here as she has. Act quickly as high interest is anticipated. Property ID: #NB3426
