With the beach just metres away, and glimpses of the ocean at hand, the laid-back life is calling from this covetable kiwi classic. Radiating charm and ensuring a welcoming seasonal vibe every day of the year, this much loved and treasured seaside home offers an abundance of living space, both inside and out, making it an ideal haven for family and friends to gather. Linking the eye to the elevated views, the central living room with its white vaulted timber ceiling, ties the kitchen, dining, and casual lounge to generous wrap around decks that form a private and sheltered courtyard; perfect for alfresco entertaining. Four bedrooms, a spacious recreation room, two bathrooms (including a luxurious Kaldewei bath), and garaging with internal access, workshop and gym space ensure teenagers or guests of all ages are accommodated. Outside, the hospitality extends to 'Murphy's', a gorgeous garden room and adaptable space that has served its patrons well over the years. At hand, easy-care garden beds and well-established citrus trees are laden with seasonal fruit. The residence is constructed primarily of concrete block and cedar weatherboard with Kwila hardwood decking and the property is fenced for pets with plenty of level off-street parking for boats, trailers, and vehicles. A small low maintenance lawn blends to native bush at the rear where an extra shed awaits.
