248B Wharau Road, Kerikeri, Northland

Located about a kilometre from Kerikeri's best sandy beach at the end of Wharau road, here is an idyllic lifestyle to be had. Enjoy the wonderful views and morning sun framed by the large windows in this architecturally designed home. The high ceilings provide a wonderful feeling of space and grandeur not typically available in this price bracket.

The open plan living dining and kitchen capture the wonderful sea views as do all three bedrooms. Two double guest bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom and separate powder room. The huge master bedroom with ensuite was designed for a sitting area and with its own entrance it could easily be a suite for B&B. The walled patio area is like another living area that could be fully enclosed.

The cladding system is structured insulated panels (SIPs) that are low maintenance but also energy efficient as is the decentralised cost-efficient ventilation system, with heat recovery (LUNOS system) in both the bedrooms and living area, and the fantastic Bosch heat-pump hot water system is super efficient and effective. In addition, a Mitsubishi heat pump/ air con unit is sized and placed to heat the whole house.

This dog friendly property is fully fenced and has plenty of room for the family and the land is a blank canvas, waiting for someone to make their mark. Located 10 – 15 minutes to Kerikeri, five minutes to the boat ramp and two minutes to the beach for that morning or evening swim.

The vendors are motivated hence the price, bring me an offer over $900k.

Viewing by appointment, after 4pm on weekdays or else, any time on the weekend.
