Downsizing, and looking for a great location? This cute two bedroom home on Lowry Bay waterfront is a rarity you might just want to snap up. On the market for the first time in almost 30 years, it offers fabulous sunshine, shelter from the southerly and excellent bones. The floor plan enables you to make the most of the spectacular outlook and your own decorative touch will go a long way. The sunroom entrance is a magical spot from which to enjoy the ever changing bay and harbour views, whatever the time of day or night. The open plan lounge/dining room opens up to a much loved patio to the rear, and the front window seat is everyone's favourite. Lowry Bay offers easy access to Hutt City and Wellington's CBD, the bus stops are within a minute's walk and the Days Bay commuter ferry and Eastbourne Village are a short drive away. And for a swim or kayak, just wander across the road and join the neighbours. A double carport and space for a further two cars adds to the convenience of living in this easy to love gem.
The sunroom entrance is the perfect spot to sit and watch the ever changing vista of passing yachts, ships and people enjoying the gentle swimming beach just across the road.
Spacious and filled with light from its sunny aspect, the open plan lounge/dining room flows between the sunroom and kitchen. French doors lead to a sheltered rear deck from the dining area. There are central heating vents and as with most rooms in this house, it is all about the view!.
The kitchen is conveniently accessible from the lounge and sunroom, being just one of the many easy living aspects of this home. With substantial cabinetry, shelf and drawer space you can bring all your favourite crockery, glass and cookware. There is a central heating vent. Between the kitchen and sunroom is the perfect spot for a small casual dining table. With a view, of course!
1. The owner describes the view from this room as 'totally magic'. A good double with generous fitted wardrobes, with central heating vent and windows to the north and west.
2. Another double, with fitted wardrobe and central heating vent.
1. The bathroom has a bath, separate shower, heated towel rail and a central heating vent. A separate toilet is next door, and a second vanity with washbasin is in the hallway.
The laundry is separate, with a tub, washing machine and dryer. There is direct access to the rear gardens and clothes line.
To the front is excellent parking, softened by planted borders. The two carports (one with door) and space for 2 further cars is a bonus not enjoyed by many more substantial homes in the area. To the rear is a much loved patio where you can relax or dine in a sheltered spot while still catching sight of the harbour view. A short path and steps lead to an even better view - the perfect contemplation spot.
Double carport, plus off street parking for at least 2 additional vehicles. Bring the trailer and camper van if you wish!
Both bedrooms have generous built in storage with cupboards above. There is a storage area in the hall plus a linen cupboard. A large storage area in the loft is easily accessed via a retractable ladder.
