Shoes optional, sand compulsary, we have found you the kiwi beach dream. Admire the surf from the kitchen window, or take a short walk down to get your feet in the sand and soak up the sandy memories with a cold drink at the end of the day. This is a home full of memories and so many more to give. The ideal family bach or a blank canvas to create your dream beach spot. Additions have been made over time giving you some big spaces to spread out and yes she may be a little tired in some spots - but she has got views, a fabulous location and so much opportunity. We would even go as far as saying, this is a bach with a view that you can actually afford! The floor plan offers an open plan living, dining and kitchen downstairs, there is a fantastic covered deck which is like a second living space. You can sit and listen to the waves crashing, surrounded by family and friends, feet covered in sand. This main living space can handle a crowd hustling in and out, big family dinners or a cosy winter night in front of the fire. There is a sunroom off the dining and a double bedroom. To the back is a second bedroom, the main bathroom, separate toilet, and separate laundry. Upstairs is another bedroom with its own toilet, vanity and a balcony which provides the premium position to take in that glorious ocean view. Outside is a single garage, shedding, and another room which could be transformed into another bedroom. The front garden is a haven with citrus and fruit trees, a greenhouse and vegetable gardens. On the road side, there is plenty of parking space for the cars, bikes, as well as the boat and the quad bike. The section is fully fenced as well. This is a no fuss home, as it is - Summer is waiting for you to make the most of it - or you can take advantage of this excellent position and start sketching your renovation plans.
