The solid 1980s origins are all here, but this ultra spacious Atawhai home has been transformed into a contemporary beauty, taking full advantage of its lovely sea panorama.

The quality, detailed refurbishment makes the home feel like new.

With four bedrooms, three renewed bathrooms, a huge near-new kitchen and oodles of living space inside and out, there's so much modern and comfortable family living to enjoy. And there's the convenience of being just minutes' drive to the city.

The home is on two levels with an expansive 289 square metre floor plan including big decks front and rear and two separate lounges.

Elevated views to the Haven and across the Boulder Bank to the bay cap off the appeal of the home which is privately situated in a right of way. It's far enough away from road noise but easily accessible to the highway for trips to town - or bike commuting along the cycleway.

The bedroom and living spaces are on separate floors, with bathrooms on each (and a master en suite).

The upper living area is huge, opening wide to a large wrap-around front deck taking in the sea panorama. And there's a second living room which opens to a very large and mostly covered rear deck overlooking the back garden.

The house sits amid a nicely landscaped 848sqm section with lots of established trees and shrubs. Lawns are level for children's play or just relaxing and you'll find plenty of room for your vege garden.

The new look of the house extends to paintwork and use of cedar board cladding features. The other cladding is Hebel board. there's insulation in walls, ceiling and under-floor spaces and the house has been retro-fitted with double-glazing and there's a recently installed heat pump.
