Overview

Vendors downsizing – viewing is essential!

Tucked away in a private waterfront setting, this much-loved home offers the kind of lifestyle that keeps families returning to the Marlborough Sounds year after year. Adding to its unique character is its connection to local identity and history. Originally built by renowned Sounds identity Willy O'Donnell, the home carries a story that is woven into the fabric of the region. Much of the timber used throughout was personally sourced by Willy, including timber reclaimed from his boat Vespa and materials salvaged from the original local Four Square, creating a home rich in character, craftsmanship and nostalgia. Spread across three levels, the home provides plenty of space to relax, unwind and accommodate guests, with three bedrooms, a large games room with its own bar and bathroom, and a flexible layout that adapts effortlessly to both permanent living and holiday escapes. Bathed in sunshine thanks to its north-facing position, the home enjoys a warm and welcoming feel throughout the seasons. Step outside and you'll discover a generous entertaining area where family gatherings, long lunches and relaxed evenings overlooking the water become part of everyday life. Sheltered and serene, it's a place where you can truly slow down and enjoy your surroundings. For those who love getting out on the water, two moorings and the ability to launch from the beach in front, tide dependent, make it easy to enjoy everything this special location has to offer. A double garage and ample off-street parking provide plenty of room for vehicles, boats and visiting friends and family. More than just a waterfront home, this is a property with a story to tell. A place where generations have gathered, memories have been made, and a connection to the Marlborough Sounds runs deep. Whether you're searching for a permanent waterfront residence, a family holiday base, or a place to create your own lasting legacy, this is an opportunity not to be missed. We invite you to experience this special waterfront property for yourself and arrange a private viewing with George or Em today.
