Starting with a stylish and substantially enhanced waterfront home, carefully extended and modernised under the watchful eye of Sheppard and Rout Architects to suit the owners in accommodating a growing family. Add a sundrenched and sheltered boatshed tucked into a private nook and completed with a mooring close to the beach (AKB321). This is undeniably the perfect waterfront lifestyle in the stunningly beautiful Takamatua Bay.
As you enter the home you are immediately struck by its complete privacy and a view that is quite simply phenomenal. Abounded by a lush mature and low maintenance garden, you are free to relax with the cacophony of native birdsong or entertain guests with pride in this perfect setting.
A large welcoming open plan kitchen and living area spill freely to the generous deck through sliding stacker and bi-fold doors, providing you ample space to dine outside in all-day sun. In cooler seasons simply switch on the heat pump or sit snug beside the log burner and watch the stormy weather roll up the Harbour. A well spec'd kitchen with a double oven, induction hob and slick stainless benches is complimented by glass splash back with imagery to remind the owners of yesteryear.
On this level across the entranceway from the living area, there is luxurious main bedroom that also opens to the deck and has large windows to lie in bed and enjoy the outlook from. Serviced by a beautiful tiled ensuite bathroom with a nearby third toilet for guests, couples in residence need not leave this level of the home.
Downstairs, four more bedrooms provide excellent sleeping arrangements for family and guests. A beautiful double bedroom looks out to the bay through a huge window, while three more bedrooms open out to the lower deck and provide a separate haven for lucky kids to enjoy. A second family bathroom, laundry area and under house storage are also provided.
As you meander down the well-formed path to the waterfront you are greeted by your own boatshed. Memories will be created in this unbelievable setting that is seldomly available in the Akaroa Harbour.
The home has a convenient off-street parking area on street level, with a stairway leading you into a beautifully landscaped rear deck that provides a sheltered second outdoor living area.
Available for settlement prior to Christmas and to be sold predominantly fully furnished, this is a desirable opportunity for buyers to enjoy the absolute pinnacle of a Banks Peninsula lifestyle property approximately 10 minutes from Akaroa.
