321 Marine Drive, York Bay, Eastbourne, Lower Hutt, Wellington

This utterly unique property is coming to market for the first time in 45 years! While hard for the family to let go, the children are now grown and a simpler life beckons- it's now time for another lucky family to grow here, and enjoy making memories. Situated in York Bay in the heart of the Eastbourne Bays, absolute waterfront properties just don't appear often, and certainly not of a size and scope as spectacular as this one. Your new home here sits literally across the road from steps down to the popular swimming beach, next to a bus stop, too, for another kind of convenience. Driving into the property, there are two double garages to choose from, plus room for another 5 off-street parks, so plenty of rooms for cars and toys, or for the home hobbyist . Access to the main dwelling is via cablecar in one direction, or a beautiful bushwalk in the other, with a very cute 1940's era, 1 bedroom cottage sitting off the bushwalk, nestled into the trees. It's a project in need of renovation but would be a great asset to rent in the local market, or for multiple family living. You'll love the ride up through the trees on the cable car to the main family home, in pride of place on the hill, with spectacular sun and views over the Harbour. Surrounded by towering Eucalypts and rich native bush and birdlife, is an elegant, warm wooden home. Showcasing the best that Lockwood homes have to offer, panoramic views abound and this home gets incredible sun. With a towering, doubleheight, generous lounge with woodburner, elegant dining area adjacent to the stylish kitchen and tranquil

conservatory, the living flows easily here. There is also a separate laundry and WC on the main floor. Each end of this home is bracketed by decks, where you can enjoy outdoor living and easy connection from the conservatory or main lounge, simply great for entertaining.

Upstairs there are 3 or 4 double bedrooms, as the current study has both a platform for a double bed and large wardrobes, as well as clever curtaining for privacy. The family bathroom and separate shower room also sit on this floor along with the huge master bedroom, with walk in wardrobe and ensuite, plus a conservatory room. All through the home are extra touches, like generous shelving spaces, and the kitchen and bathrooms have a mid-century modern flavour to them. Downstairs from the main house is a very large, 1 bedroom granny flat with great sun and views, heatpump, study, lounge, double bedroom, kitchen and separate laundry. It has a separate entrance to the main house and deck of its own to enjoy and is currently tenanted.

The bush and lovely flower gardens have been nurtured by my vendors over 45 years, and offer many delights for those wanting space for cars or toys. Children big and small will love exploring here in this bush and beach hillside playground! The vendor also has an active resource consent for further subdividing the section, and a LIM is available.

This property is a once in a lifetime opportunity for someone lucky, to build on what is already here and make this wonderful house and land your own, so make sure you don't miss out!
