Whangarei

It's all about getting homework done before the kids escape with their friends to enjoy this magnificent playground. There's a sand pit, a tree swing, a compliant swimming pool and plenty room for a game of soccer on the front lawn. For the bigger kids, it's a quick race from the basement storage to the waterside to don lifejackets and float the kayaks. If the breeze is right, the old paper tiger can be launched, its sail set and the kids are off veering down the Inlet. Mum can watch all the fun and games while absorbed in a good book on the lower deck; if it's near dinner time she can monitor all the activity from the well-laid out kitchen. Dad can unwind with a beer on the upper deck while cooking a whole snapper he has snared out front. The open plan living, dining and lounge flow out to all year round BBQs on the decks or poolside. The home is light and airy and with the glorious, panoramic water views it's a home you will want to "just be there all the time". The home, on two levels, is a great configuration for the family. Everyone has their space; the older kids may prefer the sleepout or it can be used for a home office. A short walk down the road and the kids can pick up the school bus or it's a quick cycle to town. This property is the essence of wholesome family living by the water and it's in a high worth waterfront location close to the vibrant town of Kerikeri. It represents good value and is affordable entry level waterfront so don't hesitate to inspect today.
