15 Matakane Street, Waitarere Beach, Horowhenua, Manawatu-Wanganui

From the exterior this is an unassuming very modest home, and you get the feeling of wonder as it suddenly transforms to a whole other level once you enter the boundaries of this home.

Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully redesigned and rebuilt, inside & out, with the help of one extremely talented architecturally qualified daughter who has transformed a very simple beach bach - completing a full renovation and extending the home from a small 81m2 bach to a very inspiring well-designed home of 137m2 - that gives a feeling of tranquil resort style living to all that enter this very welcoming four bedroom, two bathroom home.

An inviting boardwalk to the home's service area introduces you to the delightful open-plan living areas, including a stunning well-appointed kitchen with a raked ceiling with a large skylight that showers the kitchen with natural light. The dining and living areas provide a very light and airy feel with vaulted ceilings to this entire area and again flooded with natural light from the main entrance.

This home is fully fenced and the main entrance flows through the first of three outdoor living spaces which have access to the living rooms. Three of the bedrooms have access to outdoor living areas, the master suite having a more secluded covered outdoor area to while away the afternoon reading a book, having an afternoon cuppa or a quiet retreat from the business end of family living. The fourth bedroom serves as a large hobby room and has great natural light and a fabulous view of the back garden and outdoor areas.

Beyond family living, the home extends to the back of the section where there is a very productive vegetable garden that is more than adequate to feed the family, with a garden shed with a laserlite glass house and a locker for storage. The home is serviced by a 23,000L water tank, electric hot water, a ceiling fan & heat pump in the living areas, and a ducted air conditioning system for the bedrooms for year-round comfort and convenience.
