Lifestyle opportunities on the edge of town are rare enough, but ones with personality, privacy and a bit of magic are almost impossible to find. This 2009 Signature Home is exactly that, architecturally designed, finished in linea and texture coat, sun soaked throughout and sitting proudly on a generous 3,698sqm lifestyle block that feels a world away yet remains comfortably close to town.
From the moment you arrive, the distinctive blue front door hints that this isn’t your standard build. Inside, the clever use of windows floods the home with light and frames pockets of rural, sea and mountain views at every turn. The kitchen is tucked away for both practicality and privacy. A bright dining area flows to a separate living room, both opening to the patio so you can follow the sun or the breeze. A ceiling fan and wood burner keep the home comfortable through every season. Two bedrooms are positioned downstairs, one enjoying its own patio escape, while the tiled family bathroom offers a generous layout with wet floor shower featuring dual shower heads and a large bath.
Timber stairs lead you to the master suite, your own private retreat with a cosy nook ideal as a reading corner, small office or potential future ensuite should you wish to elevate things further. Enjoy your private balcony where the outlook is remarkable, sweeping sea, rural and mountain views that shift with the weather and the seasons
The home includes flyscreens, honeycomb blinds, double-glazed aluminium joinery, Infinity gas hot water, solar panel assistance, good internal storage and an internal automatic double garage.
Outside, the magic continues. The 3,698sqm grounds are well fenced, established and surprisingly self sufficient. Mature gardens and fruit trees draw in the resident Tui, while a storage or milking shed currently houses three goats. A purpose built chicken coop, glasshouses, multiple vege planters and private boat parking all add to the lifestyle appeal. The house is supplied by a 25,000L water tank while your own well services the gardens and paddocks.
It’s an ideal entry-level lifestyle block for those wanting something a little different, quirky, private and wonderfully practical, where you can garden, graze, grow or simply unwind, with town just minutes away.
