Views, space, smart upgrades and the beach just minutes away.
5B Kingfisher Drive is one of those properties that delivers a few surprises along the way. Tucked into beautiful Takamatua, this relaxed Banks Peninsula home has been thoughtfully upgraded, with the hard work already taken care of so you can simply move in and enjoy.
As you arrive, the newly asphalted driveway leads to a generous high-stud parking area with a lockable workshop, providing plenty of room for the boat, kayaks, bikes and all those essential water toys, along with a secure space for projects, storage or hobbies.
Head upstairs to the first level where there is an outdoor seating area, before entering the home through a large laundry and mudroom. This is a fantastic practical space for kicking off the wet, sandy or muddy gear before heading into the main living areas.
The kitchen has been stylishly renovated while retaining the warmth and character of the timber interior. It’s a lovely place to cook, entertain or simply enjoy the views while doing the dishes.
The kitchen flows through to the living area, where a large woodburner creates a cosy space in winter. In summer, the sunny outlook and surrounding scenery take centre stage.
The bathroom has also been upgraded with sleek black cabinetry and tapware, complementing the natural timber walls beautifully.
There are three generous bedrooms, with the third bedroom located upstairs on a mezzanine level. Tucked away above the main living areas, this additional bedroom offers a lovely sense of separation and is a great use of the space.
And then there are the quirky surprises that give this home its own personality. For additional space for guests, or perhaps a private getaway spot for the teenagers, you’ll find another versatile space downstairs beside the lower balcony. It can also be accessed via a hatch door in the second bedroom, with a ladder leading down to the balcony below. Fun, unexpected and wonderfully quirky, it’s a real point of difference that adds another layer of flexibility to this home.
Outside, substantial retaining work and gabion baskets have been completed, along with the new asphalt driveway — giving the property a fresh, finished feel and taking care of some of the bigger jobs for the next owner.
And then there is the location. Takamatua Beach is just minutes away, giving you easy access to the water and all that this beautiful part of Banks Peninsula has to offer.
Whether you are looking for a permanent home, a family getaway or somewhere to escape the everyday, this is a property where you can slow down, enjoy the views and make the most of the lifestyle.
The hard work is done. The views are here. The beach is close. The quirky extras are waiting to be discovered. Now it’s your turn to enjoy it.
