12 Cheviot Road, Lowry Bay, Eastbourne, Lower Hutt

Elevated, private, released with motivation

This home presents a genuine opportunity in one of the Eastern Bays' more tightly held enclaves. Set back at the end of a long private driveway, the property occupies an elevated site in Lowry Bay, with sun across the day and an open outlook to the harbour.

The house carries the character of its earlier life, the turret a quiet signature, while the layout has adapted to contemporary family living. Living and dining open to a wraparound deck, with a separate sitting room and open fire for the cooler months. Four bedrooms provide room to spread out across the main residence.

Adding genuine flexibility is a beautifully renovated detached studio providing independent accommodation, with a bedroom, bathroom, living space and kitchenette. Considered in its finish and independent in its layout, it lends itself equally to a home office, guest suite, teenage retreat or accommodation for extended family.

Mature gardens, a stream and footbridge give the rear of the site the feel of a private reserve, with a path leading directly to the beach beyond. Local schools, regular transport and the soon to be completed Te Ara Tupua pathway place the city within easy reach.
