This comfortable Hemingway-built home was constructed in 2003 with a plaster over fibre cement exterior and offers a reassuring sense of quality and ease. Set amidst a beautifully colourful, well-established garden, the home enjoys a peaceful outlook and a special sense of privacy. Adding to its appeal, this back section borders a council reserve and walkway, meaning one less neighbour and a pleasant buffer that enhances both space and tranquillity.
The living areas are open-plan and feel supremely spacious, with the family room forming the true heart of the home. This area flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining zone, creating a practical and social layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is well equipped with an induction hob, underbench oven, dishwasher and rangehood, and features a handy connected breakfast bar/table that has been well-utilised by the current owners.
A more formal lounge provides an additional living option and is bathed in natural light and sunshine, offering a warm and relaxing retreat. From the dining room, doors open out to a large outdoor entertaining patio and private backyard, perfect for summer meals or simply enjoying the garden setting. Comfort is assured year-round with two heat pump/air conditioning units, and the home also includes a working alarm.
Accommodation includes a master bedroom, complete with a triple wardrobe and en-suite, and overlooks the rear garden. The other two bedrooms are double - one would be the perfect office if required. The family bathroom is compact and features a ‘shub’ shower system, and the WC is conveniently separate. The laundry room is generously-sized and offers fabulous cupboard space.
The double garage provides internal access and features pull-down attic stairs for additional storage, complemented by a large garden shed. Parking has been maximised, plus there is opportunity to tweak the space if a boat or camper van needs to be accommodated. The exterior was repainted a few years ago and appears to be in good condition.
Our vendors have enjoyed the property incredibly since their purchase almost 13 years ago, but now have definite plans to downsize. The neighbours are wonderful; there's always someone to collect your mail or feed the cat if you're away. Proximity to town, Ahuriri, Onekawa Industrial area, Park Island, airport and supermarket - is something a new buyer will appreciate. Realistic vendors have said to ignore RV; they know new owners will want to make some cosmetic changes - your chance to add value.
