OVERVIEW
Nestled in the heart of Island Bay, this warm and welcoming home offers the perfect setting for family life. Full of character and bathed in sun, it's a place where kids can explore the garden, adults can relax on the deck, and everyone can enjoy the best of this vibrant seaside suburb --- all just a short stroll from the beach, cinema, and village shops. Features include:
- Five bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and two with annexes that would be ideal for a nursery, dressing room or study
- Separate living and dining rooms, each with a modern gas fireplace to complement the HRV system that will keep you cosy and comfortable whatever the season
- Timeless blend of 1920s character --- polished floorboards, beamed ceilings, bay windows, leadlights --- and modern improvements, including a Colorsteel roof
- Exceptionally sunny indoor-outdoor living, with an al fresco deck off the kitchen and a bigger, partly-covered upper deck off one of the bedrooms: where better for teenagers to hang out away from the rest of the household?
- Large, easily-accessible double-gated section with flat lawn front and back, fruit trees, vegetable beds and a grapevine --- so there's plenty of room for the kids to run around while you can cut down on grocery bills
- Drive on to a double-garage with ample off-street parking as well as a shed for storing not just gardening gear but also the kayaks you'll want to take to the beach
- Brilliantly positioned for families, being just a short bike ride from the beach or a flat stroll from the Empire Cinema, shops, supermarket and eateries
- Located in close proximity to both local primary schools and easily accessible by bus to fantastic secondary schools.
You couldn't wish for a more family-friendly location than the heart of Island Bay with everything people love about the premier seaside suburb on the doorstep. Don't miss the Open Home.
