Omanu Oldie but Goody

Here is a good solid original beach home tucked just along from Omanu surf club and rubbing shoulders with high calibre contemporary beachfront architecture. It may not be flash and fast forward but it has a character all its own and wide unobstructed views straight out to sea, which, from upstairs, stretch from Coromandel to Maketu and beyond. The sand and sea are right at the bottom of the garden and this home is designed for immediate access to the beach. \n\nOpen plan living wraps around the spacious kitchen and steps down to a conservatory style dining and sun room where flagstones welcome sandy feet straight in from the beach. Two double bedrooms fan out along the lawn, both with sliders outside and one with its own walk through wardrobe and en suite bathroom. A basic bathroom and separate 'loo' serve the lower floor.\n\nAn airy stairwell opens out to a huge lounge/ bed sitting room with its own deck to enjoy those expanded views. While the aqua deep curved bath and the paler caroma bench in the huge bathroom may date it they also ooze retro charm.\n\nDouble garaging is backed by a laundry and a trailer sized rear door to a concealed courtyard. \n\n Timber lined ceilings both upstairs and down, and the solid brick exterior attest to the quality originally incorporated. The home would respond to an upgrade, is probably too good to be bulldozed. It basks in the reflected glory of its quality neighbours and enjoys a lovely relationship with popular Omanu beach, safe swimming just along the sand.\n\nFor beach or permanent residency find plenty of easily realised potential in a prime location.\n
