Overview

Harbour views, village living

Positioned in a prime pocket of Governors Bay, this two-storey family home captures sweeping views across the harbour and sits proudly on a generous 984sqm (more or less) land parcel. Elevated at the top of the site to make the most of its outlook and bathed in sunshine, the home enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout, creating a warm and welcoming environment year-round. The main living area is perfectly orientated to soak in the ever-changing harbour views and flows effortlessly to a large deck, an ideal setting for entertaining or simply relaxing in the sun. An open-plan kitchen and dining space features polished timber floors and connects easily to the living zone, while a separate lounge or office provides flexibility for families, guests or a quiet retreat. Accommodation includes four bedrooms, serviced by a well-appointed bathroom with a separate toilet. Recent updates, combined with a heat pump and cooling air conditioning unit, insulation and partially double-glazed aluminium joinery, ensure the home feels warm, inviting and ready to enjoy from day one. There is also scope to add your own personal touch or further enhance the kitchen and laundry area if desired. The expansive lawn framed by mature trees creates a beautiful natural setting, welcoming birdlife and offering plenty of space for children and pets to play. From here, it's a short stroll across the road to the local restaurant. The water's edge and Governors Bay School is also just a stone's throw away, and the property sits within Cashmere High School zone, reinforcing its appeal for families. With its harbour outlook, sun-filled interiors and generous landholding, this is a home that offers both lifestyle and opportunity in equal measure. With our vendors committed to their next move, seize your opportunity to secure a home in this tightly held part of Governors Bay.
