8 Seaton Street, Marybank, Nelson

Family original with sea views!

Deadline Sale (unless sold prior).

Here's an enticing opportunity - a one owner, well loved, original and distinctive home ready for a new family and rejuvenation.
Count the benefits: wide, elevated sea views, a property with lots of space inside and out and an excellent location, within comfortable cycling range of town. Clifton Terrace school is a few minutes' walk.
On two levels, the home was designed with architectural flair, with twin gables over two pavilions, a stark contrast to the typical 50-year-old suburban house. And with only one owner, you know this one has been well cared for.
This really is a good catch, a sturdily built two-storey 1975 home of three or four bedrooms where investment - modest or more substantial - will be repaid.
The gabled roof lines with matching, high, angled windows give the house presence and bring light flooding in through the day.
The main living area, dining and kitchen areas access roomy, wrap-around upstairs decks. The master bedroom gives lovely Bay views over the Boulder Bank. Downstairs, there's a spacious rumpus room for fun and games (or, perhaps an extra bedroom).
From deck, living room and bedrooms, the vista is ever-changing, the tides and changing light of the Haven, the ships passing by and the twinkle of night lights across the Bay.
The gently sloping section is approximately 675sqm. Front lawns give room for play while the back garden is laden with citrus fruit and with space to grow your veges.
There are outdoor areas to suit the weather; the sea-facing front deck off the lounge for entertaining, and a sheltered back patio for morning coffee or welcome late afternoon summer shade.
The home has two heat pumps and a lounge wood burner. Thoughtful design has provided plenty of storage cupboards throughout, an extra toilet in the garage, highlight windows for light and privacy and a large, dry basement.
You'll love the location and views and with so much opportunity to update, this property is ready for its second owners and next stage of life.
