Opportunities like this don't come along often, this extraordinary property offers a lifestyle few will ever experience.
Held by the same family for 45 years, this York Bay property is truly one-of-a-kind. Absolute waterfront opportunities like this almost never come up, especially on a scale as special as this. Just across the road from the steps to the beach, with a bus stop closer by and Eastbourne village minutes away, the location is unbeatable.
The property offers plenty of parking with two double garages plus space for another four cars. From there, you can head up to the main home either by cable car through the bush or a peaceful walk surrounded by native birdlife. Along the way, you'll find a 1940s one-bedroom cottage, requiring renovation but full of potential, whether as a rental, guest house, or extended family space.
The main home sits proudly on the hill with incredible sun and sweeping harbour views. A classic Lockwood design, it feels warm and welcoming with a soaring lounge and wood burner, dining and kitchen spaces that flow easily, and conservatory-style rooms to soak in the setting year-round. Outdoor living is effortless with decks at each end of the house. Upstairs you'll find three double bedrooms and a large study or fourth bedroom, including a huge master with walk-in wardrobe, ensuite, and its own conservatory retreat.
Below the main home is a spacious one-bedroom flat with its own deck, sun, and views, currently tenanted, making it an excellent home-and-income option.
Outside, the gardens and bush have been lovingly cared for across decades, creating a private sanctuary with space for children, pets, cars, or toys. To top it off, there's an active resource consent for subdivision, adding even more opportunity for the future.
