Designed by Paris Magdalinos and built in the late eighties, this classic architectural beach house has had just one owner. Three generations have since enjoyed the home and lifestyle offered at Waipatiki Beach. On a level site, this 120 sq m home has a large north facing deck in a private lush and easy-care native garden which has been admired and enjoyed by many. Picture windows and doors frame views and provide channels for the sun's rays to stream through into charming living spaces. The kitchen, dining and lounge overlook the lush gardens and bathe in the afternoon sun. Once open, the three large timber and glass ranch sliders create a seamless transition to the elevated deck. The entertaining space instantly doubles, perfect for summer barbecues and enjoying the company of others with alfresco dining. Inside, the master bedroom and en-suite are positioned at the one end of the home and are adjoined by a music room. The two other bedrooms are located on a split level at the other end of the house. A guest bedroom with a queen bed and vanity is ideal when hosting friends or family. A third bedroom comes complete with bunks and offers flexible sleeping arrangements.
