Our owners are realistic and ready to leave after, 25 happy years in this special locale.
The owners of this much loved Tahunanui property call it 'Treetops' and that's the feeling, perched seemingly in the high branches of your own grounds with Tahunanui beach and Tasman Bay laid out before you. Up the driveway off Moana Avenue is a solid, well presented three bedroom, two bathroom home in a prime hillside location where a family can build a future or a professional couple find safe sanctuary. With 1373m2 of tree and bush-clad grounds and places to entertain friends outside on balmy summer evenings, this is a welcoming house where you can feel instantly at home. The house was solidly built in 1947, then extended to twice its size in the 1990s when it was completely re-plumbed and rewired. The house has original rimu floors and doors and offers flexible living on two levels with the benefit of two bathrooms and three toilets. Here's a home for a family, with a parents' comfortable retreat upstairs and self-contained space for children or guests downstairs. The 157square metre home (excluding garaging) offers three separate living spaces on the entry level, all taking advantage of the magnificent and ever-changing tidal views of the Bay and Western Ranges. A sunroom with wide windows attracts the sun and beckons for lazy weekend lunches, while the more formal dining room and adjoining TV room or lounge are cosy in winter and relaxing in summer. A heat pump provides instant warmth when needed. Doors from both sunroom and dining room access the front patio, making this a house that's easy to open up to hear the morning birdsong and welcome sea breezes on hot summer afternoons. The parking spaces, including single garage and an adjoining carport, accessed by a shared driveway are generous. Here's a home ready to move into, or re-model to your liking while the large gardens and outdoor areas offer wonderful potential to add landscaping value.
