The Best Seat in Governors Bay

Few properties enjoy a position quite like this.

Commanding breathtaking views stretching the length of Lyttelton Harbour and across Governors Bay, this much-loved home occupies one of the area's most enviable vantage points. From the expansive bay window in the lounge, the kitchen sink and three of the four bedrooms, the ever-changing harbour becomes part of everyday life. Watch yachts drift across the water, enjoy spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and experience the tranquillity that has made Governors Bay one of Christchurch's most tightly held coastal communities.

Set on approximately 2,955sqm of established grounds, this is a property where children can disappear for hours of adventure, pets have room to roam, and the possibilities are limited only by your imagination.

Originally built in the early 1900s and extended during the 1980s, the weatherboard home offers the perfect opportunity to renovate, modernise and create something truly special while capitalising on its exceptional setting. Whether you're looking for your first family home, a rewarding renovation project or your forever home with one of the finest harbour outlooks in the bay, this property provides the perfect canvas.

A large standalone double garage, excellent off-street parking and the generous grounds only add to the appeal.

For those looking beyond today, the substantial landholding may also present future opportunities to explore subdivision potential, subject to obtaining the necessary council consents and independent professional advice.

After many years of cherished ownership, this remarkable property is ready for its next chapter. Secure one of Governors Bay's most captivating outlooks and create a home that future generations will treasure.
