181D Harper Road, Waimarama

This is an exceptionally unique property at Waimarama because of the size of both the section and the elevated home, sea and Bare Island views and the bonus of a one-bedroom cottage and extensive shedding. Built in the 1980's, the significant main dwelling designed by Graham Linwood features concrete block and cedar cladding. All rooms are generously proportioned and maximise views. The open plan kitchen/dining room flows to the generous formal living room, with both opening to extensive decking. A large master bedroom with en-suite and a walk-through dressing room also opens to the deck. The office/games room enjoys afternoon sun. A study or single bedroom, guest bathroom and laundry complete the ground floor plan. A large stained-glass window is a stunning feature in the stairwell to the first floor. Two spacious queen-sized bedrooms and a huge north-east facing bedroom with stunning views and extensive wardrobing share a bathroom. A large room currently set up as a gallery could be further utilsed as a children's rumpus, or hobby room. Situated below and to the west of the house is a private entertaining area with a solar-heated liner pool. Mature trees including a plethora of fruit trees, meandering paths, extensive lawns and grounds provide an exciting opportunity for keen gardeners. A one-bedroom self-contained cottage with mezzanine provides options. Extensive shedding sits to the south-west of the house including large double garaging, a generous wine cellar and a large 6m x 8m storage shed (approximately). This property is however not without its challenges. A building report available for potential purchasers has identified significant concerns around subsidence in both the house and cottage. Further investigation is required to understand the extent of this. This is an "as is where is" sale. TENDER: Closes 12:00 p.m. Thursday 12 August 2021, NZSIR Havelock North...
