ARCHITECTURAL DREAM HOME: DAYS BAY

House Sold - Eastbourne Lower Hutt City

Nestled on a sheltered north facing Days Bay site with fantastic, year round sun and unimpeded harbour views, 615a Marine Drive is a haven.

Architect Richard Middleton of Novak+Middleton, conceived this property as a series of boxes set into the land, sited optimally for land contours as well as sun, with Scandinavian design influences. The generous 495m2 accommodation, spread over 5 levels, is luxurious. Clean lines and bold glazing statements are softened by the interior design. Materials used include Victorian Ash with several different finishes, soft window furnishings, cedar and sto cladding, double-glazing and top quality bathroom and kitchen fittings.

The main living level while open plan, has distinct areas: formal and informal living, office space, kitchen and dining (plus superb wine cellar). The kitchen is superb with walk in scullery, fantastic appliances and breakfast bars. The home’s 6 bedrooms are crowned by the master suite, which occupies the entire 4th level. A show stopper with floor to ceiling glazing, this wonderful space comprises a sleep zone, lounge area as well as capacious walk in robe and spectacular full bathroom. The sunny deck completes this adult’s retreat. Above is the private pool level, complete with heated swimming pool, extensive fenced decking, outdoor fire and spectacular sea views.

Built in 2008, the features are top of the line appliances, media room, gas, solar and electric heating, double glazing, heated rooftop pool, 176m2 decking, double internal access garaging and across the road from the Ferry wharf. These features and location will draw you in, but the warmth and views will make you want to stay. Floor plans and LIM report will be available to interested parties
