315 Patons Rock Beach Road, Takaka, Tasman

Beachfront and Private!

Offers Over $1,500,000

This exceptional 4.0468 hectare beachfront property, in its idyllic coastal setting, offers a comfortable, relaxed way of living in a tranquil environment. Its wide sandy beach and safe swimming hark back to summers spent by the sea. A boat can easily be launched from the beach for a day's fishing.

The property comprises a 224sqm single level home, with generous indoor and outdoor entertaining areas, a master suite, two double bedrooms, a wheel-chair friendly guest bathroom, laundry and remote controlled double garage. A charming studio unit, in a bush setting, contains an open-plan living area and kitchenette, a double bedroom, bathroom/laundry, a carport and an internally accessed double garage, with an office or storeroom. A spacious sleep-out, with a deck, is attached to a large utility shed.

Surrounded by lawns, low maintenance bark gardens, native bush, an orchard and three fenced paddocks suitable for grazing house cows, ponies or sheep, the property is private, sunny and secluded. It enjoys a northerly aspect and spectacular views across the wide expanse of Golden Bay to Mt Egmont and a seemingly endless horizon. The outlook sweeps left to Collingwood, Puponga and Farewell Spit and right to Tata Beach, Pohara, Wainui and the mountain ranges, as they extend to Separation Point.

Built in 2008, the house has been designed with environmental considerations in mind. Walls and ceilings are fully insulated and there is double insulation between the living room and adjacent bedroom. Polished concrete floors gradually warm to store heat during the day and slowly release it throughout the evening. The water and radiators in the hallway, master bedroom and both bathrooms are heated either by solar panels, with electric backup or by a combined Gourmet wood burner and cooker. There is Broadband, Sky TV and cell phone reception.
