If you’ve been searching for a way into the Eastern Bays without compromising on land, light, or lifestyle, 48 Bay Road might be what you’ve been waiting for. Tucked down its own private driveway on a generous 682m² freehold site, this 254m² (approx) home offers a level of seclusion that is increasingly rare in this blue-chip suburb. It may be that you simply live, love and enjoy, however, if you are looking to maximise your position to the full, there is scope to add your own touches or undertake future enhancements, potentially making this an investment as much as a lifestyle opportunity.
Designed with a focus on space and sun, the heart of the home features an open-plan living area that is exceptionally light and bright - the perfect canvas for modern family life. With three spacious bedrooms on the 2nd and 3rd level, plus a home office on the ground floor that could easily be a 4th bedroom if required, there is ample room for the remote professional or the growing family.
The crowning jewel is the upper-level master retreat, a private sanctuary positioned to capture elevated sea views across the harbour - a daily reminder of just how close you are to the coast. Complete with your own bathroom and a spacious walk-in wardrobe, this space offers you privacy and comfort to truly unwind.
Beyond the living spaces, this home offers utility that most seaside homes lack. You’ll find extra-large double garaging coupled with a dedicated workshop and massive added storage. Whether you’re a classic car enthusiast, a weekend tinkerer, or a family with an endless collection of bikes and paddleboards, this home has the "engine room" to handle it all, plus plenty of additional off-street parking.
Location is everything, and here, you have the best of the Bays at your doorstep. St Heliers waterfront and village are less than a 15-minute walk away, offering boutique shops, cafés, and popular restaurants. Additionally, this location offers the benefit of being within the highly regarded school zones for Churchill Park School and Glendowie College.
