43 Cumberland Street, Leigh, Rodney

Classic coastal simplicity - Leigh

This true blue seaside Bach has been owned by one family since originally built in 1982. 15 years ago, the family engaged award winning local architect Graham Sawell of Pyramidz Architecture to re-invent their coastal escape; along with the added design features, the Bach underwent a full re-build, with all new cladding, joinery and roof. Modernising the residence delivered a delightful holiday Bach that typifies coastal living and provides a lock and leave lifestyle that easily translates to a permanent home. With a full size section and plenty of lawn, the property allows off-street parking, and importantly, an internal access double garage for a family sized boat. From the front door, the living, dining and kitchen open out to a huge entertainer's deck with stairs to the back lawn. A large bedroom fits bunk beds plus king bed complemented by a bathroom and laundry. Head up the spiral staircase where a mezzanine lounge opens to its own private deck taking in fantastic sea views of the Hauraki Gulf. A master bedroom with ensuite adjoins, and here is where the possibilities abound. Additional space off the bathroom is ready to be enjoyed as a full size walk-in wardrobe, whilst access to the oversized room above the garage is a versatile space designed to allow for stairs from the entrance foyer. The highly desirable location is a short walk from a morning coffee or take-away treat and a moments' walk from Leigh Wharf with the best all tide boat ramp in the area. Close by are sensational coastal walks where it is common to see little blue penguins, dolphin and orca breaking the surface. Located on the Matakana Coast, the property is 78 kilometres north of the Auckland Harbour Bridge. Nearby is Goat Island, Pakiri, Matheson Bay, Daniels Reef & Matakana. Excellent schooling and a thriving local business community exists. Whether you prefer to swim, fish, dive or sail, this holiday hotspot awaits your calling.
