739 Brighton Road, Ocean View, Dunedin

Looking to step a little sideways in life? Drop that mortgage a bit, or completely? Would living near the sea and growing some produce free of sprays and hefty supermarket price tags appeal? Ok, so you want what pretty much everyone wants and that's entirely understandable, but this is your chance to actually have it! You see, I have just listed this ridiculously cute Ocean View cottage that is applying for a new dreamer to occupy. If you constantly dream of a simpler existence involving a two double bedroom home with a single garage not too far from Ocean View Beach, your dream may well have been answered. Whether a cold night brings you closer to the wood burner or the hot summer sun brings you out onto the deck, or perhaps into the country style kitchen to make scones, apply lashings of butter and cream and raspberry jam, there is definitely a space in this adorable abode for all your moods and fancies. My vendor is on the move after 11 years and is willing to provide possession at a time that suits you, so come along and see me at the scheduled open homes and check out the garden and the elevated view across Ocean View village to the rolling waves beyond.

First time to the market and with so many features, I am struggling as to where to begin to tell you about this property! Ok, so you need a big shed for the workshop right? Perhaps you have collected one too many cars? Perhaps you have wanted to live in Ocean View on the seaward side with direct access to the beach through the sand dunes? A budding surfer, pro surfer or pro dog walker? Perhaps you dream of double glazing and a smaller, more easy-care home on a blank canvas section? What about exercising your hidden talent for landscaping? What if you could combine all your wants and needs and simply move right on into 739 Brighton Road, Ocean View in the next month? This 2013 build of 111sq.m is a Polytech build with three double bedrooms, all with wardrobes, plus bathroom and separate toilet. Extremely tidy, warm and with a pellet fire too boot, you'll be toasty this coming winter and ready to come out onto the deck when spring comes around again. The very generous lounge with open plan kitchen and dining is truly family sized and faces north to the sun, taking in a great view of the sheep grazing the opposing hillside. The 2005 build 9m x 12m Total Span shed is capable of holding six car equivalents or would make a great storage shed for all those things you collect and your partner gets grumpy at you for?! Well, store away until your hearts content and should you want to store a boat, jet ski, your surf board collection, this shed has your name all over it. Oh, and if you were wondering what the bare section is next door? It is a DCC Reserve - how good is that!? The beach is literally just out the back through the sand dunes. Rise at first light, do your yoga on the sand, take that polar plunge and walk the dog for literally kilometres north toward Blackhead or south toward Brighton. Pop around the road to see Kathy at the Brighton Store and buy your weekend ODT and a coffee at the cafe and walk back through this tranquil and much loved Southern seaside town of Ocean View.
