17 James Drive, Diamond Harbour, Banks Peninsula, Canterbury, 8971, New Zealand

You need to step inside to appreciate this home, being an ‘A’ Frame all rooms have inherent character; the view is exceptional and the presentation of this renovated, cosy 3 bedroom home is very appealing. Located in Church Bay within walking distance to the local supermarket, school, kindergarten and coastal cliff track walks. Easy drive on access and a single garage with extra workshop space, a modern & light kitchen, fully double glazed, large living room with doors onto the generous deck to make the most of the outlook to Quail Island and vistas of the Port Hills. Master bedroom, also with excellent harbour views, two bathrooms and two good sized guest bedrooms. A large 809m2 section with established garden, a terraced, level back yard with a garden shed and detached studio with water & power – great for extra guests or teenagers or perhaps a hobby room or home office. A carefully positioned hot tub to soak in the stunning sunsets and views. This home has been well maintained and cherished as a holiday home but is more than suitable for permanent living. It is time for a change of direction for the vendors and an opportunity to relish for buyers.

Diamond Harbour is a desirable destination to live or holiday in; it is an easy 40min drive to CHCH or a quick ferry ride to Lyttelton with connecting bus to the city. There is a local play centre, kindergarten, school and is in-zone for Cashmere High School; supermarket, fish & chip shop, fuel station, café & bar, doctor’s rooms, library, rugby club & community hall. Numerous walking & biking tracks, close to Purau Bay – a great swimming beach, local wharf, 2 boat ramps, golf course & an amazing selection of clubs & groups.
