Hawke's Bay Today

Stunning remodel with beautiful views

- By Chrys Ayley

Set in the Napier countrysid­e, towards the end of a cul-de-sac, this beautifull­y presented 1960s weatherboa­rd home in Poraiti offers a panoramic seascape of Hawke Bay with views to Bluff Hill on one side and the Mahia Peninsula on the other.

This weatherboa­rd home was fully renovated in 2010 with a new roof, it was re-wired, re-plumbed, double glazed and the kitchen and bathrooms were renovated. There’s insulation in the ceiling and under the floor.

The main home has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open plan living room, a study and laundry. Separate accommodat­ion, built in 2010, offers an additional two generous bedrooms, a bathroom and utility area.

The house is elevated and has been designed to highlight the marvellous views. The quality of the interior throughout the property is outstandin­g and highly contempora­ry. Polished timber floors add a homely ambience while drapes, blinds, and light fittings add style.

In the lounge a picture window slides back to reveal the impressive panorama and there’s a large, terraced timber deck that’s perfect for lounging and alfresco dining while admiring the sunset. Guests could move easily between indoors and out making it a great house for entertaini­ng. This is a light, sunny room but there is a gas fire for chilly evenings. While the décor is generally neutral there’s a stunning feature wall in the lounge and the contrastin­g colour scheme is continued through to the kitchen and laundry.

The kitchen is well equipped with quality Bosch appliances. There’s a black granite countertop and white fixtures and fittings. There’s ample storage space and two pantries. The kitchen appliances include a built in microwave/oven and a separate oven. There’s a six burner gas stove and a discreet extractor system above. The laundry is located within the kitchen, close to access outside and is complete with a Miele washing machine and dryer.

The main bedroom offers a similar wide view, has a sliding door to the deck and is also very light and sunny. The large wardrobes are fitted out with wardrobe systems and there’s a heat pump. The ensuite is of top quality, as are all the bathrooms. The latte coloured décor is complement­ed by pebble details on the floor and walls and contrastin­g vanities. There’s underfloor heating in both the bathrooms in the main house. The ensuite has a large shower while the main bathroom has a shower and a bath.

The second double bedroom is equipped with a quality wardrobe system. A study nicely rounds off the facilities in the main house. Separate accommodat­ion built in 2010 provides a further two generous bedrooms, a beautiful tiled bathroom and a utility area with tea making facilities. This would be perfect for visiting family, friends, running a business or even possible income potential.

The landscaped garden is easy care and is fully irrigated. The land on the seaward side slopes down towards the water’s edge and is principall­y covered in trees and shrubs. The deck is surrounded by grasses and there’s a small patch of lawn just beyond.

This is the perfect spot to enjoy peace and serenity yet it’s only ten minutes to the nearest supermarke­t.
