6a Takahe Place, Mangawhai, Kaipara, Northland

Bought brand new just ten years ago, my vendors have already undertaken a recent interior transformation of this lovely mono-pitch home to include fully tiled bathrooms with the latest fixtures, complemented by a fresh coat of paint, new flooring, and the absolute coolest of garage conversions.

The original open-plan living space flows onto a covered deck where adjustable louvres and drop-down blinds ensure year-round outdoor enjoyment. Beyond lies a level lawn, ideal for children's play and easy supervision.

The spacious, modern kitchen boasts abundant storage, a charming breakfast bar, and picturesque views of the rural landscape beyond. The adjoining lounge and dining area are flooded with natural light, creating a welcoming and airy space, perfect for relaxation.

Down the hall are two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes as well as a powder room and a bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and separate shower. The master suite boasts a walk-in robe, chic ensuite, and direct access to the deck via a large sliding glass door.

Descend a few steps to the second living space, opening onto a deck with elevated views out to the estuary. This entertainer's haven features a partially covered area with a Blackoak outdoor fireplace, dining and spa area. Inside, delight in a dedicated food and beverage preparation space, alongside a generous area for lounging or leisure activities, with space to include a table tennis or pool table for added entertainment should you wish. The versatile layout ensures ample room to accommodate various needs. Additionally, for practicality, a Murphy bed seamlessly transforms the space to accommodate guests or to reclaim floor space when not in use.

Situated in a quiet little cul-de-sac, this property offers off-street parking, a shed, space for a boat, and meticulously landscaped, fenced grounds with level lawns at both the front and rear.

Conveniently located within walking distance of Mangawhai Village, this home is a testament to comfort, style, and practicality.
