18 Avonbank Place, Marybank, Nelson

Large home, larger views!

This expansive five bedrooms plus office family home has so much to offer with its multiple living choices, but the real star here are the spectacular views out across Tasman Bay - simply breathtaking.
Families, work-from-home people, those wanting in-law accommodation or extra income will see opportunities galore in this feature-packed two-level home with a lift for easy upstairs access.
The spectacular view is one thing, but there's much more to discover at this great Marybank cul-de-sac location, a few-minutes' drive to the city with no traffic queues or red lights.
With 340sqm on two levels, there's huge living space, a choice of outdoor entertaining areas, and a huge four-car garage with workshop and storage space left over.
The house was built in 1988 and has undergone various updates, including partial double-glazing, while retaining its rimu timber architraves and sills.
It now boasts a new kitchen and special features including mains pressure solar hot water for low power bills and a ceiling-based radiant heat system. Thermostatically controlled and on a timer, it makes for a toasty warm home in winter, and with night store heaters upstairs and down.
The upstairs-downstairs mix of bedrooms and living space gives this home such flexibility.
Upstairs is a huge master bedroom suite, and two more double bedrooms, family bathroom and toilet.
Downstairs, opening to the garden, is another large room with adjacent bathroom. This can be a second master suite for in-laws or perhaps extra income, or a second lounge/rumpus for children.
Of the other two rooms downstairs, one is currently used as an office. With its separate access, it's ideal for a home-based business, or the whole downstairs could even be configured as a separate flat.
With the city in easy reach, the location is a drawcard. You can launch a small boat across the road at high tide and fish for a snapper. So many living options means this multiple-use home will have wide appeal.
