Coastal bliss at Raumati Beach
ARAUMATI beach home with fantastic outdoor living within a minute’s walk of the beach is for sale for the first time in 15 years.
The three-bedroom house, at 9 Newry Rd, was built in 2007 on a flat and sunny 495-square metre section near the end of an exclusive cul-de-sac and includes an internal lift for convenience and future-proofing.
The lift can be accessed from both within the internal-access double-garage and from the ground floor of the 240 square metre two-storey dwelling.
The front door opens off a covered entrance into a tiled atrium with a double-height void and high glazing to maximise natural light.
On the ground floor are two of the doublebedrooms, each with a built-in wardrobe; a bathroom with a corner shower cabinet, vanity and toilet; and a large utility room that combines a hideaway study, laundry and storage.
The bedrooms open to a patio that steps out to fenced lawn while the utility area opens to patio that links to a large, private, rear courtyard with a well-established easy-care garden, sculptures and a sundial.
Carpeted stairs ascend to the living/dining areas, kitchen and main bedroom suite.
Bifolding doors open up the spacious, light-filled lounge to a large, west-facing, tiled balcony with a sea view.
The balcony is covered, so effectively functions as an extra living room while the dining area has a window seat facing the eastern hills.
The superbly appointed kitchen overlooks the al fresco courtyard and has ample storage, two wall ovens, a ceramic cooktop, rangehood, dishwasher, refrigerator-freezer, granite benchtops, an appliance garage and a tiled floor.
The main bedroom is positioned for late sun and sea views. It includes a walk-in wardrobe with fitted storage and a tiled ensuite with a spa bath, shower cabinet, vanity and toilet.
Other features include a separate toilet on the upper level, double-glazing, two heat pumps, underfloor heating in both bathrooms and solar heating.
“This is an amazingly future-proofed home that will delight families and retirees,” agent Della Randall says.
“It’s in quiet, leafy, established setting within a minute’s walk of the beach and has been landscaped for easy-care outdoor living close to Raumati’s shops and school.”
