Opportunities like this are rarely offered. Tightly held for the last 27 years this much-loved classic two-storey Lockwood home sits proudly on Marine Parade. With sweeping views of the beach, sand dunes, ocean and Kapiti Island; the South Island can also be seen on clear days. With the right conditions, Mt Ruapehu and Mt Taranaki are also visible to the north, while the Tararua Ranges provide a stunning eastern backdrop.
Designed and built to withstand coastal conditions, the home is equally suited as a permanent residence, a holiday retreat, or an investment opportunity. It may be rented long-term or operated as a 'Book-a-Bach' style accommodation for short-term holiday guests, offering excellent flexibility for a wide range of buyers.
Elevated wrap-around decks capture panoramic coastal and mountain views, perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or simply soaking in the seaside atmosphere. Upstairs features open-plan living with a cosy wood burner, three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate toilet; ideal for family living. Relax in the lounge while enjoying the nightly sunsets from your own armchair.
Downstairs provides an additional large bedroom/bunkroom, shower, toilet, and laundry, offering excellent separation and convenience for extended family or visitors. The internal-access garage has been cleverly utilised as a games room, complete with a pool table, table tennis table and dart board; adding to the appeal as a ready-made holiday retreat.
Set on a flat fully fenced section with hardy plantings, the large rear yard presents exciting future opportunities. Boasting 898m2, there is ample space for an additional dwelling, tiny home, or potential subdivision (subject to local council consent). The vendors are willing to leave most of the furniture and equipment at no additional cost, offering a true turnkey option. Buyers are able to choose to retain all the contents as is (except for a few listed items) or select what they wish to keep.
A rare opportunity to secure a versatile coastal property with breathtaking views, generous land, and multiple lifestyle and income options. Homes like this on Marine Parade are seldom available, so don't delay, make contact today.
