Nestled in the heart of the spectacular Pelorus Sounds, this fabulous home offers an enviable lifestyle. Set on a generous 4,550sqm parcel, the property commands magnificent views that are nothing short of breathtaking. From the wide, sun-soaked deck, you can take in the ever-changing panorama of the Sounds while enjoying the constant chorus of native birdlife. Tui and bellbirds are daily visitors, creating a magical soundtrack that enhances the serenity of this special location. Pohutukawa and banksia trees frame the property, epitomising the Marlborough Sounds lifestyle, while the surrounding bush teems with life, truly a wonderland for those who appreciate nature.
There's an established orchard with an abundance of fruit, including plums, pears, peaches, avocados, tamarillos, and passionfruit, plus a tunnel house for vegetables. Perfect for those who enjoy living sustainably and eating straight from the garden.
Built in 1998, the home has been refurbished in recent years. Modern upgrades to the kitchen and bathroom, along with fresh carpet throughout, ensure the home is ready for contemporary living while retaining its relaxed beach-like character. Comfort is guaranteed year-round thanks to a heat pump and a substantial log fire with wetback and solar attached.
Practicality is also a hallmark of this property. A double garage and carport provide ample vehicle storage, while a two-bay shed and a container offer further space for tools, boats, or recreational gear. A large, versatile room off the garage currently caters to additional guests, with a combined composting toilet and shower just outside for convenience. There's even a caravan on site, ensuring visitors are always welcome.
For those who love the water, the property includes a mooring right out front, as well as the rare ability to keep your boat on site - a valuable advantage when living in the Sounds. There's also a 17% share in the pontoon jetty transferable for you (four shareholders). The meticulous owner has gone above and beyond in maintaining and improving the property, with upgrades including a strengthened driveway, additional drainage and the installation of stunning gabion baskets.
Water security is well accounted for with 37,000 litres of storage, with two water filters. Every detail has been carefully considered, making this home not only beautiful but also highly practical for permanent living or holiday escapes.
If you are seeking a change for the better, this Sounds retreat is a rare opportunity to secure your own slice of paradise. What in the heck are you waiting for?
