Newlands

The views from this ridgeline home are as unbelievable as the surprisingly sheltered aspect. Seldom can you enjoy a panorama as spectacular as this, from a big sunny deck that you can use year-round. No wonder this three-bedroom gem with the bonus of a versatile basement and large garage is for sale for just the first time in 23 years. Features include: - 270-degree views that stretch across the sweep of Lyall Bay, from the harbour and Evans Bay to Pencarrow and Cook Strait - breathtaking and dynamic with ships, planes and helicopters. - Three double-bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, including two with stunning views. - Lounge with built-in wood burner and French doors to a large deck that's sheltered for everyday use plus a private courtyard for when you want mid-summer shade. - Superbly presented, having been fully rewired and freshly painted inside and out, complete with ultra-colourful bathroom. - Family-friendly location, with two bus stops virtually at the entrance, both a primary school and playcentre at the end of the street, and a zigzag short-cut down to Lyall Bay - Large concrete-lined basement with security window grills that could be converted to recreation space, a bedroom suite or even a work-from-home office. - Roomy, newly-painted single garage with automatic door, storage and convenience of a wood hatch to easily stack firewood below. Yes, there's a short walk down to the house but it's a small price to pay for views this big and a lifestyle this sunny, private and sheltered. Don't miss Sunday's viewing.
