Mid Century Beach House Beauty
Originally built in 1950 and with just two owners, this home comes to market fully renovated and redesigned in 2019 by The Home Maker Interiors and Urban Function Architecture.
Sunny and secluded, the spacious approx. 855m2 section captures all day sun and offers modern living ease with the central open plan lounge and dining area centred around the gorgeous bespoke kitchen. Complete with a spacious island, quality oak joinery, aged brass tapware and handles and a spectacular full-width picture window.
Chosen for the cover of Homestyle Magazine's 100th issue, the true success of the renovation is how it perfectly blends its mid century character with existing brass hardware and rimu flooring and joinery, teamed naturally with exposed bricks and breezeblocks, while simultaneously bringing the home into the 21st century.
Double glazed, with two heat pumps, log burner and excellent insulation, this is a warm home that will comfort no matter the outside weather. Prospective purchasers will be delighted to note that the home has been rebuilt from the framing and has been completely re-lined, re-wired, re-roofed and has new plumbing throughout.
The first floor houses three bedrooms, served by a spacious bathroom featuring floor to ceiling handmade tiles, quality fixtures and fittings. Carefully chosen details like the aged brass tapware and curved mirror nod to the home's mid century origin.
Situated upstairs, the master bedroom is a calm retreat, with luxury ensuite and peaceful views of the hills.
Outdoors the back yard features kauri and rimu, fruit trees and bougainvillea climbing up the side of the house. The home's beach location inspired the landscaping surrounding the multiple decked areas with palms, succulents and outdoor shower.
A single garage, automatic gate and secure off-street parking completes the picture.
