It's got everything. Situated in sunny St. Leonards you'll love the stunning harbour sunrises and late sun, off-street parking with double garage, shed, chicken coop, established vegetable gardens, sleep out and green house.

The 1012m section offers a variety of sunny outdoor seating areas and a tiled gin deck amongst the fruit trees, three water features complete with fish and native frogs. There's even a wood-fired smoker for those harbour salmon next to the brick and tile barbecue area. Bespoke brick arches, native plantings and beautifully laid Purakanui River stone walls integrate the house and section.

The bones of the house are pre-war red brick, exposed native hardwood doors architrave and skirting. Stained glass rendered native birds grace internal doors and the kaleidoscopic plaster ceilings have been preserved in much of the house. Everything else is new.

The main conservatory opens onto a large glass-lined deck with expansive views of the harbour islands and Harbour Cone. Fully insulated top, bottom and sides this three bedroom (4 including sleep out) two and a half bath home is warm as, but when needed a Woodsman wood burner and heat transfer system more than do the job.

The property boasts a new electrical system and is networked and wired (Cat6) for VDSL - speeds average 28 down, 10 up. The master bedroom offers an ensuite with heated tile floor and walk-in wardrobe with a second conservatory/office space adjacent also drenched in afternoon sun.

The large kitchen sits comfortably within the open plan living area and has plenty of storage. Bosch induction hob and convection oven make cooking easy and the double sink, utility tap, insinkerator and two drawer dishwasher help with clean up. An efficient hot water heat pump and cylinder help slash those power bills - which average $8 a day through the year.
