8 Edna Street, Ocean View, Dunedin City

If your priority list in housing includes magnificent panoramic ocean views, directly north facing with all day sun, a sizeable home and one on a decent sized section, then 34 Bennett Road is a must-see. The established section provides that popular screening from the road and the meandering sealed drive down to the home provides plenty of off-street parking. The easy-care section at 1619m2 has mature oak, pohutukawa and silver birch trees, and large flat areas including a vegetable garden and plenty of space for the kids to play. Subdivision potential may exist but we will let you check that out for yourselves. The rear of the section rises up at the seaward side of the section to meet the floor level of the lounge, and visitors can either come up the internal stairwell from the garage or via either side of the home and arrive at the sliders on to the huge deck. The magnificent open plan kitchen-dining-living area is a sun trap and with the added benefits of double glazing, a Masport wood burner and new woollen carpets underfoot, this home is winter ready! The 180-degree views from Saddle Hill and down across Ocean View Beach are simply enthralling and an undeniable feature of this perfectly positioned home. Apart from the island out the window, the kitchen has an island also, plus a five burner gas hob, European dual oven and the Samsung fridge can even stay, but for those who like a view while baking, this is another plus for the family cook. The dining and living areas open to the expansive Kwila deck (which faces north and the ocean) via large sliders and this deck is also shared by the master bedroom. The master has an ensuite and is bathed in morning sun. This level also has another three bedrooms, one of which could easily be an office. The main bathroom is also handy to these three rooms. The lower level accommodates a fifth bedroom or second living area with bathroom and is indeed a great place for the teenager, visiting friends, a gym or larger home office. Other features of this large family home include LED lighting, heat pump, bathroom underfloor heating, new paintwork internally, high pressure Rheem hot water cylinder, large internal access garage with space for work bench/firewood, frequent bellbird, fantail, pigeon and tui visits, off-street parking for at least four vehicles, just a few minutes' walk to the beach via a public right of way, close by to schooling at Brighton, and buses direct to high schools in the city. This is one of Dunedin's standout seaside properties just 15 minutes to the city. The vendors are now Waimate-based and your opportunity to buy 34 Bennett Road is very much now! Please view at one of the scheduled open homes or by private appointment. The next move is yours...
