Offered to the market for the first time in more than 100 years, this historic homestead occupies a rare 4,022sqm site right on Bythells Bay's waterfront only 15 minutes drive from Picton.
This much-loved home, being original in design features two double bedrooms both externally accessed from the verandah, a bathroom and separate galley kitchen located at the rear of the home and a spacious living area that's bathed in natural light. An open fire ensures the communal areas are warm and cozy all-year-round, while a separate laundry and a separate toilet mean the home is as functional as it is inviting. A clear water effluent system was installed only a few years back suitable for a six bedroom home and the property is complimented with your very own stream fed water supply.
Outside, there's plenty of room for guests to pitch their tents and the kids to play backyard cricket. Established trees provide shade and shelter, while manicured lawn provides easy access to the beach. Walk west along the golden sand to a fixed jetty within the bay - this property owns one quarter share of this structure. Also, a mooring capable of accommodating a 10m vessel is sold with the property.
It's little wonder Bythells Bay is such a sought-after location. One of Marlborough Sounds best beaches is right on your doorstep, while an array of Queen Charlotte Sound's favourite hiking tracks, mountain bike trails, diving/fishing spots and spectacular Lodges such as Lochmara Lodge or Bay Of Many Coves Resort for dining out mean you can live, relax and play without straying far from home!
With the family living out of the region our owners have made the decision to sell, presenting their holiday home for auction with a genuine sense of resolve. Homes in this part of the Queen Charlotte Sound are hard to find and in high-demand, and attention from a wide range of prospective purchasers is guaranteed.
