Discover the ultimate coastal lifestyle in this coveted northern pocket, where the vibrant buzz of Howick Village and the picturesque sea views from Howick Beach are both just a stone’s throw from your doorstep.

Boasting an impressive 310m² floor plan, this expansive residence delivers space in abundance. The ground floor is a masterclass in versatility, designed to adapt to your family's changing needs. Here, you will find a super-sized bedroom—currently used as a rumpus—complete with its own ensuite, alongside a second large bedroom and a convenient kitchenette/laundry combination. This semi-independent wing is the perfect solution for extended family, guest accommodation, or a private work-from-home office. Completing this level is a double internal access garage and extensive storage options, ensuring there is a place for everything.

Ascend to the upper level, where the heart of the home awaits. The spacious gourmet kitchen is a culinary dream, featuring an expansive benchtop for prep and dual ovens that make catering for special large gatherings a breeze. This area anchors two open-plan living zones, where polished wooden floors preserve the home’s original character and warmth.

The indoor-outdoor flow here is simply effortless. Step out from the family room or the master suite onto the sun-drenched wrap-around deck. A quiet and peaceful haven, this space features a wood-fire pizza oven, perfect for creating gourmet memories with friends and family. Accommodation on this level is generous, offering four double bedrooms (including the master with ensuite) and a family bathroom.

Practicality extends outdoors, where parking will never be an issue. Securely gated off-street space provides ample room for the boat, trailer, or extra vehicles. The grounds are designed for easy-care living but offer immense potential: there is plenty of room for green fingers to make their mark, safe lawns for children and pets to run freely, or even space to add a swimming pool in the future.

Our vendors have absolutely treasured the convenience and coastal magic of this location, and their heartfelt wish is to see a new family step in and enjoy this special home just as much as they have. Don't miss this golden opportunity in the Northern side of Howick—call today to arrange your viewing.
