28 Marine Parade, Mellons Bay, Manukau City, Auckland, 2014, New Zealand
The vendors and their families have lived in the Howick area for over 70 years including in this house designed in 1991 for them by a prominent Christchurch architect.
With family gone it is time to move. Located on the exclusive Marine Parade Reserve it has unobstructed views over the Reserve to Flat Island (Motukaraka), Waiheke, Beachlands and to the Coromandel.
The Reserve pathway to Fisherman’s Rock, the traditional local swimming and fishing area, is three doors up the road. A short walk down the road and you are at Howick Beach for boat launching, swimming and the family bbq.
A well designed 5-bedroom family home sited on a full site comprising 735m2 (freehold). The sturdy weatherboard exterior and a high-quality steel roof is complimented with a high stud, an abundance of light from large windows encapsulating the northern outlook.
There is an ensuite and a further bathroom, with sink, shower and bath and adjacent WC and downstairs shower after the beach plus the third WC.
The large living and dining spaces downstairs are ideal for entertaining, with direct access to the courtyard, all very flat and sheltered.
The owners of 30 years are downsizing and offering the loving home to a new owner who can add their redecoration or renovation ideas and start fresh.
