BAY HARBOUR<br />

PAGE 25<br />

Offering an overwhelming sense of<br />

peace and privacy on the lower slopes, this<br />

interesting 1960’s home designed by Maurice<br />

Hunt presents buyers with a rare opportunity<br />

to reside in a superbly crafted abode which<br />

has been proudly cherished by one owner<br />

since the bought the section in one of the first<br />

subdivisions.<br />

The classically designed interior currently<br />

exhibits soothing natural tones and elements<br />

of timeless style, and an area where this is<br />

showcased is upon entry where your eye will<br />

be drawn to the curved timber ceiling.<br />

There’s a blend of casual and formal living<br />

areas which are incredibly inviting and again<br />

display further warming timber features and<br />

built-in custom furniture, with the cornered<br />

window seat luring you over to put your feet<br />

up and relax on lazy afternoons. The formal<br />

lounge has a gas fire and pelmet lights for<br />

ambience with spotlights for art work. French<br />

doors open out onto the patio.<br />

Occupying the upper level is a media<br />

room which was thoughtfully added to<br />

the property around 25 years ago, and this<br />

represents yet another living area with a<br />

built-in desk and cabinetry where you can<br />

truly remove yourself and unwind to the<br />

panoramic view which encompasses Mt Hutt<br />

and the Kaikoura Ranges as well as the city<br />

and the estuary.<br />

There’s a selection of alfresco areas that<br />

wrap around the property and comprise a<br />

stunning ornamental grape vine covering<br />

the pergola, a verandah, a neatly landscaped<br />

garden, a sheltered bricked patio and areas<br />

of decking. The upstairs hardwood roof deck<br />

provides you with an abundance of incredibly<br />

private backdrops where you can soak up the<br />

sun from sunrise to sunset and the serene<br />

surrounds.<br />

Accommodation is offered by four<br />

bedrooms which share three bathrooms, and<br />

an array of heating options includes a gas fire,<br />

heat pump and partial double glazing.<br />

Located on a prime corner section with<br />

just one neighbouring property, the property<br />

includes a lower park like lawn which is<br />

a wonderful play area for children whilst<br />

also great open access for parking a boat or<br />

caravan.<br />

This home enjoys the privacy that comes<br />

with such a position and is a short drive from<br />

the flourishing hub of Ferrymead and the<br />

coastline which will direct you to the sandy<br />

shores of Sumner Beach. Also handy to the<br />

bus stop and is within walking distance and<br />

in the Mt Pleasant school (decile 10).<br />

Our owners are now reluctantly downsizing<br />

off the hill after 50 happy years here.<br />
