21 Teal Crescent, Beach Haven, North Shore

Relaxed coastal retreat, sunsets, and sails

Tucked away from the street in a quiet coastal enclave, this three-level residence is available for the first time in 20 years and celebrates breathtaking panoramic views and spectacular sunsets. Originally a Lockwood built in the 1960s, it's been cleverly renovated and expanded over time, including the creation of a ground floor bedroom and second spacious lounge with its own entrance.

Privately positioned on a 685sqm freehold site (more or less), the expansive property unfolds to maximise the wide water views and a track leads through native bush to a platform of flat lawn. The entry foyer has internal access to the double garage, then steps down into the open -plan lounge, dining and kitchen space. It features high ceilings and warm timber joinery, with a wall of glass framing the captivating, ever-changing outlook. The deck showcases the cinematic vistas of land, sea, and sky - from the area's lush green native bush reserves, out over tidal Charcoal Bay and across the busy Waitemata Harbour, with the Te Atatu Peninsula, Hobsonville Point and the Waitakere Ranges in the distance.

The top level offers two bedrooms serviced by the family bathroom and powder room, while the master has its own ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and balcony. The ground floor is still fully immersed in the views, with the light-filled lounge flowing out to another deck. There's a bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and large storage room off this, along with its own outdoor access. While there is a toilet down here, there's potential to easily add a full bathroom, making it the ideal teenage pad, extra accommodation or work from home.

Kauri Park School, bus stops and the CBD ferry are within walking distance, as is picturesque Charcoal Bay beach. This unique property's new owners will have the opportunity to add value, update and impart their own style to the already great features, further maximising this extraordinary grandstand position. Once inside you just won't want to leave! Owners are flexible on settlement even before Christmas.
