When the vendors first purchased this two storey timber home, which nestles amid over 1400sqm of mature gardens, they fell instantly in love with the restful ambiance, the ease of access to the nearby shoreline and boat ramp, along with the delightful view of the bay. This property is charming; capturing the essence of relaxed coastal living that belies the fact that it's only around fifteen minutes' drive from the bustle of Motueka High Street! The floor plan of the upper floor features open-plan living flowing out to an expansive balcony deck. The adjoining kitchen comprises laminate cabinetry, a cooker, dishwasher and a stainless steel sink, whilst adjacent is a laundry area and a handy toilet. There's a well proportioned family bathroom and three bedrooms, one single; a large bedroom with in-built closets and a view toward the bay, and a third which opens onto the deck. Under the home is a spacious garage plus a bed-sitting room with its own deck and an ensuite, ideal for extended family or lively teens. Outside, the deck has a view across the tree tops to Stephen's Bay and is sun drenched and expansive, with plenty space for entertaining. The owners have planted a myriad of native and exotic trees and shrubs bordering the lawn and this has created a wonderland for the children to roam in. The home captures the sun so it's warm throughout the winter but as back up there's a log burner in the lounge, plus a wood burning stove in the kitchen which heats the water. There are also some quirky additions such as a genuine ships porthole window in the lounge and bespoke stained glass panels in the front door. One of the advantages of this property is there's scope for you to add your own bits and pieces or remodel the home to suit your own requirements, perhaps with a view to living here permanently? Whatever your requirements, you'll struggle to find a home on the fringes of the Abel Tasman with such an equal balance of charm, convenience and affordability.
