131 Bassett Road, Remuera

With loads of potential, this spacious Californian bungalow boasting views over Hobson Bay is a chance to move your family into a sought-after location handy to Newmarket and Parnell. Brimming with original character - polished Rimu floors, high batoned ceilings, deep architraves - the pretty home sits on a leafy 604 sq m section, secure behind gates. It was recently refreshed with new carpets and painted indoors and out to give a chic contemporary vibe so it is very liveable and warm, especially with central heating and heat pumps. It has five bedrooms plus three bathrooms. However, the spaces are versatile. The bedroom with a beautiful bay window at the entry could easily revert to its original function as a lounge or even an office. There is also an area off the kitchen/breakfast area that's ideal for a homework station where parents can keep an eye on children. The generous lounge steps out to a large sunny deck on entry level, perfect for entertaining with a view over Hobson Bay. Downstairs, a second living space/office with independent entry could also work well as another bedroom if desired. It has its own bathroom, tons of storage and extends to a deck for morning coffee in the sun. There are options to add value by tailoring spaces to suit your own lifestyle needs as required. The entire top floor could be a large master suite catching awesome panoramic views over Hobson Bay to Rangitoto Island. With internal entry from the carport and loads of off-street, this property will always be a winner. In double Grammar Zone, close to Orakei Bay Village, the playing fields, walking distance to many great cafes and shops, you cannot make a wrong move here. Make a smart move and enjoy a great address, taking advantage of huge potential! *Boundary lines indicative only....
