In a stunning setting, surrounded by nature reserve along the Hastings River, this unique, feel-good home presents the ultimate location and lifestyle opportunity to renovate or develop and create something truly special.
Behind the cottage style façade, you'll discover an original, character-filled interior, that provides a versatile layout and is flooded with natural light due to the vast amount of glazing front and back. Ready to move in, but presenting an interior that needs work, it will suit those who want to put their own stamp on it and make it their own. The open living area features timber floors, high ceilings and is flanked by two sunny deck areas, perfect for enjoying the outlook and the sunny indoor/outdoor lifestyle. There is also a functional, older-style kitchen, which again offers a wonderful outlook over the river and reserve.
A real feature of the home must be the outdoor entertaining areas on offer. Running the width of the home to the rear, the timber deck adds a substantial increase to your living space and provides the perfect spot to enjoy the unspoilt views over the river and mountains in the distance as your backdrop. To the north, there is a second spacious deck area where you can also soak up the sun all year round.
Back inside, there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom overlooks the water, so you can wake up and fall asleep to the sound of water lapping on the shore. Downstairs, there is a massive amount of storage and extra living options available. In addition to the very large single garage, which has access into the backyard, there is a huge under-house workshop/ storage area, where you can keep all the kayaks, fishing gear and toys securely locked up. There is also a good sized room on this level, which has been currently used as a bedroom, which offers very useful extra space.
Yes, the home really does need modernising and could benefit for some renovating throughout, but this home really is all about the location and lifestyle. Overlooking the water and set on the reserve, this premium position will attract those wanting to renovate or even those looking to knock down and build the dream North Shore escape. Opportunities on the water are few and far between, so make sure you contact the team to see if this could be the one!
