A Celebration of Old and New

Located on one of Stanley Bay's established streets, number 30 Waterview Road showcases a picture-perfect balance of old and new. The location is coveted not just for its picturesque bays and million-dollar views - it's been voted New Zealand's safest neighbourhood for several years running, and is home to a network of friendly and incredibly supportive neighbours. This is combined with the boutique blend of Devonport's restaurants, cafes and bars, as well as a great local schools and daycare centres within walking distance. The Stanley Bay ferry service to the city makes commuting a breeze and the local park and tennis courts are complemented by one of Devonport's six great beaches.

The 350m² home has been crafted to maximise the sun, while capturing stunning views out across the living canvas of Ngataringa Bay and the inner harbour to the north.
Heritage elements of the early 1910s blend seamlessly with a stylish contemporary aesthetic. The architectural features have been accentuated with a fresh colour scheme and modern fixtures and fittings. The colour palette being designed as an ideal canvas to feature the owner's art collection.

A modest roadside presence belies the captivating and expansive 1096m² family sanctuary to follow. The more formal architectural hallmarks of the villa are retained at the front, opening through to the voluminous and modern open-plan living dining and kitchen at the rear. Feature leadlights in the front door, solid Kauri floors and ornate pressed steel ceilings embellish the wide entry hall, where the master suite (with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe) and three generous bedrooms are located.
Glass doors open into the living zone, where the soaring stud height and abundant natural light and sun enhance an exceptional feeling of space. The expansive lounge has a feature fireplace, and both the kitchen and living areas open out to the veranda overlooking the garden, reserve and tidal bay beyond. Chefs will be impressed by a generous gourmet kitchen with dual ovens, giant pantry and sweeping granite benchtops.

Family separation is paramount with the benefit of the lower level. Steps lead down to the second lounge/ children's playroom, as well as another bedroom and bathroom with outdoor access that makes it perfect for guests and extended family. There's also a separate laundry and studio located off the internally-accessed garage. Outside, the in-ground saltwater swimming pool is framed with paved areas ideal for summer entertaining, and steps lead down to prolific fruit trees, vegetable gardens and lush lawns below.

An abundance of living space and direct access onto the reserve have made this a wonderful home for the owners and their 3 young boys.

This family sanctuary showcases artfully retained period features combined with all the modern lifestyle must-haves in a highly sought-after Devonport location.
