Quirky and Retro 1950s Sanctuary
Escape to your own slice of retro heaven in this charming 1950s three-bedroom home, nestled in the laid-back seaside settlement of Westwood - just a breezy 15-minute drive from central Dunedin. Step into a world of subtle nostalgia as the front door slides open to welcome you to ultimate privacy. This very special home is surrounded not by lawns but by mature shrubs that cocoon you from the outside world. This is your ultimate 1950s sanctuary where your vinyl collection is stacked proudly and your turntable just spins out the tunes on a lazy warm autumn afternoon. Strum along on your guitar and your loyal dog just sits in the sun and soaks up the warmth and the chords. It's a vibe that's a world away from the maddening crowds and closer to what you know you crave. All three bedrooms are generous doubles for family or friends and the master super big - stretching from the covered rear porch with all its possibilities, to the front of the home and the morning sun. If you are looking for space and character? 596 has it in spades! If you need a spot for your projects or parking? The tandem garage offers flexibility here - use it as a double garage or carve out a single space with a workshop for your hobbies. That expansive covered porch could be your perfect space for exotic plants, and /or your sauna or spa and morning pilates? The rear section is your private oasis also, featuring access via a vine covered archway. This is the perfect place for growing your herbal medicines, tomatoes, and peppers. Winter brassica can fill the veggie patch that neighbours the farmland at the rear. So, what are the best parts? No southern neighbours to cramp your style - just expansive views across paddocks where your only mates are the sheep. They don't throw parties, they just munch grass, lie around, and watch the world go by. Oh, and leaving the best until last, the beach! It's just across the road and over the dunes - the perfect spot for a dog walk, a run, a swim, or even a surf. There's too much to mention and too little time and space to do it justice - you simply need to come and see for yourself at our scheduled open homes. Don't miss your chance to own this quirky retro gem - your sanctuary awaits!

From its impressive exterior to its beautifully appointed interior, this home showcases architectural elegance at every turn. The inviting foyer creates a striking first impression, welcoming guests with stunning schist stonework that flows seamlessly from the exterior through to the interior. Extra-high ceilings and solid timber doors throughout create a grand, spacious feel, while the practical layout flows beautifully to each wing of the home. The generous open-plan living area is filled with natural light from skylights, large windows and doors. Entertaining family and friends will be a pleasure in the well-appointed kitchen, complete with beautiful Tasmanian Oak flooring, abundant storage and ample bench space. Positioned beside the living area, it connects effortlessly to the thoughtfully designed outdoor space, while the dining area offers a more intimate setting. A separate lounge provides the perfect retreat for cosy winter evenings beside the fireplace. Four well-sized bedrooms flow off the hallway, which also offers a ceiling-mounted heat pump, separate toilet and good storage. The master suite is filled with sunlight, with a door providing direct access outdoors. The walk-in robe is generously sized, as is the tiled ensuite, which features double sinks. The tiled family bathroom includes both a shower and spa bath. The separate laundry sits beside the extra-large double garage, which offers drive-through access to the rear courtyard and additional private parking. The home is mostly double glazed and equipped with two gas fireplaces, two heat pumps and a central vacuum system for everyday practicality. The private, high-quality landscaped 997m2 (+/-) section is designed for easy care, with multiple deck and patio areas to enjoy in the warmer months, all complemented by an outlook to Saddle Hill. Fully fenced for children and pets with a council playground just across the road. The blend of plaster, cedar and schist cladding, along with copper spouting, reflects the considered eye of McCoy Wixon Architects, who created this timeless design. This unique property welcomes your viewing. Please contact Shoz for set viewing times.

Not for the faint hearted, this two-bedroom main house plus a separate two-bedroom flat is pretty rough with some leaks on the south side, a few rotten bits, but a whole lot of potential! It is fair to say that most people may run a mile but we are looking for those who are doers, not dreamers, those who will roll their sleeves up and get stuck in. If you are a tradie wanting a project, or even if you can form a group of mates to knock this home into shape, you can create an asset to rent or sell on. Remember the old adage, "Location Location Location" - you are in the heart of Mornington with easy access to cafes and most conceivable services you'll need, all within walking distance. Most of the bones are strong, but the skin is needing attention. If your makeup is to see potential instead of problems, this is your chance to buy cheap, do it right, and build your assets. I am looking forward to meeting you at the scheduled open homes leading up to the deadline sale.
