Contemporary family beachside living at its best

This stunning home screams beachside living. From the moment you step through the front door into the expansive foyer and glimpse the ocean through the bi-fold doors at the other end you will feel like turning the phone off and forgetting the emails, you are now on holiday. On the ground floor there are five generously proportioned bedrooms two of which open out via bi-fold doors to the rear yard so you can take in the ocean breeze on a lazy Sunday morning. Servicing these bedrooms is a large family bathroom with shower and bath, adjacent is a cleverly designed separate toilet and vanity area. The ground floor also contains a small sitting area and if you really must work, then there is an office nook with a view out to the yard and sea so you will never be far from the action.

Up the modern stairway your breath will be taken away by the sense of space throughout the open plan living and kitchen area. The pitched roof soars up and provides the perfect place to take in these magic views out to Whakaari and Moutohora Islands, this is quintessential modern beachside living. The living areas have space for all activities, dining, lounging or playing board games with the kids. The modern kitchen has recently been completed and has ample workspace to prep for those family get togethers. Rounding out the first floor is a second bathroom and the sixth bedroom.

If the inside hasn't got you in holiday mode, then the outdoor spaces here definitely will. Out through the two large bi-fold doors from the living areas you come onto the first-floor balcony which is large enough to host the extended family and friends for a kiwi summer BBQ banquet. The glass balustrade ensures the view is on full display, you feel like you are right on the beach. Downstairs through the bi-folds and out on the expansive rear yard which adjoins the dunes is your blank canvas; outdoor fireplace? beach volleyball court? the choice is yours. Additional features of this home also include an attached double garage with internal access to store all the toys and an outdoor shower to wash the sand away after a day at the beach.

Waiotahe Drifts retains the essence of kiwi beachside living, this peaceful community is not only ideal for those who love sun and surf, but it also offers a range of over activities within a short drive including golf and fishing and bike trails. Convenient amenities are just a short drive away, allowing for an effortless blend of relaxation and accessibility.

If you are looking for a large family holiday home or a permanent residence right on the beach this place is for you.
