Overview

RIDGELINE RIPPER!

Situated just above the road and enjoying all day sunshine all year round, this solid single-level 1920s renovated bungalow will make someone's dreams come true. Walk up a few steps to the front lawn and enter the sheltered porch and into the wide welcoming hallway with original rimu floorboards, leading to a very generous open plan kitchen, dining and living area with vaulted ceiling. The French doors open to a good sized deck and the lovely, level lawn and garden area. The garden also tells the story - private and sheltered with all day sun, it has created a micro-climate nurturing fruit trees, and a very productive kitchen garden. The owners, over many years, have terraced and planted the flat garden area and fenced off the leafy copse at the rear 1/3 of the section. This has provided a perfect environment for abundant bird life, including tui, fantail, grey warblers, silvereyes, NZ native falcon, morepork calling at night as well as kereru and kaka. The house is comprised of three double bedrooms and two living areas with the northern frontage of the house providing views of Lyall Bay to the Orongorongo ranges and beyond (with the Kaikoura ranges visible on a clear day). It has a high stud attic space with fold-down stairs and potential for a loft bedroom/studio. Located on the bus route and close to great South Coast walks and the Taputeranga Marine Reserve. With views to the occasional visits of dolphins, orca and whales to the bay adding to the dynamic outlook. The highly regarded Houghton Bay school is also just a short walk away. Having the same owners for over 40 years speaks to just how wonderful this very special home is. Move quickly and make it your own.
