A look from the road could be very deceptive because once you enter this property you will be very pleasantly surprised. With its immaculate presentation inside and out, four good sized bedrooms and wooden interior, this is certainly a family-friendly home. A real bonus is the great view from the living areas and rear deck, across part of Surfdale and across the water to Kennedy Point. An air conditioner in the lounge with a duct to the hallway, will make sure your family will be warm all winter and cool in the summer.

Garaging, storage and a workshop are located in the basement area. Plenty of lawn at the rear allows for kids and pets to run around. Its central location means the kids can walk to the local primary and secondary schools and the commuter ferries aren't that far away. The very popular north side beaches of Oneroa and Little Oneroa are also just a short drive away.

With a real shortage of good family homes, this property needs to be viewed. Or ... if you are considering buying now at today's prices but don't want to move to the island just yet, the current owners will be happy to continue living there and pay a fair market rental and of course, they come highly recommended.
