Stylish Beachfront Haven

Looking out to panoramic sea views, and the beach that starts at the bottom of your private garden, you'll love the finer aspects of this 2 double bedroom beachfront bungalow, bathed in natural sunlight. An element of mystery guides you from the high-walled entry into a "secret garden" where you can pick a lemon or lime and enjoy dappled sunlight under the rose-covered pergola. Lush, fragrant plants shelter the courtyard that welcomes you to the house, and to the detached studio.

Inside, enjoy a spacious open kitchen, dining and living area, with simple clean lines, a designer palette and the warm glow of polished matai floors. French doors open onto sweeping decking from the living area and master bedroom. These lie to the afternoon sun and look out over the easy-care garden of coastal trees, shrubs and native grasses framing the views of Kapiti Island and Tokomapuna ("Aeroplane Island") nestling in its shelter.

In summer, deep eaves provide shelter from the midday sun, When the nights are cooler you'll appreciate the stone fireplace where driftwood and pine-cones gathered from a walk on the beach will give a warm glow and a focal point for fishing stories and a red wine.

Trendy Paraparaumu Beach shops and restaurants are only metres away by beachside stroll or roadside wander, at the desirable and highly sought after southern end of Manly Street. When quality, lifestyle and design capture your way of life, contact Della Randall to view this perfect offering.
