There's something special about life this close to the beach. Long summer days spent by the pool, evenings around the outdoor fire with friends, and spontaneous walks to the beach just because you can - life at 18A Muricata Avenue is all about making the most of where you live.

Set on a 369sqm (approximate) freehold site just moments from sand and sea, this home has been designed for relaxed living and easy entertaining. At the centre of it all is the stunning outdoor space - a heated in-ground pool framed by glass balustrades, sun soaked decking, built in BBQ area with sink and outdoor fireplace, an outdoor shower for post swim rinse offs and plenty of space to lounge, dine and gather with family and friends.

Inside, the living spaces are warm, welcoming and beautifully connected, creating easy flow between the lounge, kitchen and entertaining spaces. The living room is made for family movie nights, quiet moments or unwinding after busy days, with a heat pump, ceiling fan and soft sheer drapes keeping the space comfortable year round, while crisp whites, coastal timber accents and a feature tiled splashback give the kitchen a fresh contemporary feel. A bathroom on this level further enhances the practicality of the layout.

Flexibility is another standout. On the ground floor, the current owners have configured a separate studio style annex (unconsented) with a kitchenette, bathroom and additional sleeping/living space, complete with its own private access. Whether used for guests, teenagers wanting independence, extended family, a work from home setup or simply extra room to spread out, it adds another layer of versatility to the home.

Upstairs, the generously sized master bedroom opens to a private balcony, while two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the floor plan. Views of Mauao from this level are a subtle reminder of just how close to the coastline you really are.

And the location? Hard to beat. The beach and beachfront boardwalk are just a two minute stroll away or wander a few minutes in the other direction to the start of Mount Main Street for boutique shopping, vibrant dining spots and your morning coffee fix.

This is a home that captures everything people love about Mount living - relaxed, social, sun soaked and effortlessly connected to the coast.
