If you are lucky enough to live by the sea, you are lucky enough.\n\nIf you live in a beautiful home with expansive sea and island views, and separate self-contained living for additional income - you are certainly among the fortunate few.\n\nThe rare opportunity has arisen to make this dream your reality. \n\nBought to the market for the first time in 18 years, is this fabulous and immaculate front townhouse at 197 Marine Parade. \n\nThis phenomenal property boasts magnificent vistas drinking in the sights and sounds of the blue of the ocean and summer skies and the green of Moturiki, Rabbit and even Motiti Islands.\n\nDesigned with the sea in mind, the fabulous tiled second-level balcony seamlessly flows from the open-plan living and gorgeous granite kitchen through large stacker doors. You won't find it hard to picture yourself here with drink in hand.\n\nAlso found upstairs are a spacious master and ensuite, plus guest bedroom, bathroom and powder room. Both bedrooms at this level also enjoy superb sea views.\n\nDownstairs, self-contained guest accommodation with a full kitchen and living area opening onto a sun-drenched patio, two double bedrooms, an office or fifth bedroom and generous tiled bathroom is a huge positive to this property. \n\nA lift and generous carpeted double garage complete the ground level, with good offstreet parking outside. A reclad in 2014 with celcrete on a cavity provides future proofing.\n\nThose in the market for a beautiful holiday home big enough for the whole family with no mowing and low-maintenance planting, or those who simply want a home and income opportunity, should make this a priority to view.\n\n**COPY AND PASTE THE BELOW LINK INTO YOUR BROWSER TO VIEW OUR PROPERTY WEBSITE**\n\nhttps://app.four-walls.com:443/tournew/index/52447\n
