Jacksons Claim, Pauanui.
The top selling point for this Pauanui beachfront property could be the amazing views. After all, the experts say location, location, location.
But this house was built for generations to enjoy. It is practical and cleverly thought out.
Nearly three years old, the large Lockwood design and
build home has many owner-requested high quality features.
The blonded pine interior sets the tone - bringing the outside colours of the beach inside. The owners have chosen subtle colourways throughout the house that continue the tone on tone flow.
From every room there is an ocean view. It sweeps round 180 degrees, from the entrance to Tairua Harbour to the seaward end of the Pauanui airfield. There is uninterrupted vision of the beach and ocean. Sliding doors lead out to extensive decks - you can then step straight onto the beach.
The owner wanted the house to be lived in and enjoyed by an extended family for generations to come. It has several living areas, including a formal lounge with a large Otago schist open fireplace. Doors open to the ocean at one end, and to a barbecue area at the other.
The kitchen is positioned to make the best of the afternoon sun. Bifold windows open onto the barbecue area. The kitchen/dining room links two living areas.
Upstairs is devoted to bedrooms. The master suite has a balcony and the supreme view out towards Alderman Islands. Two more bedrooms enjoy a shared balcony looking out towards the entrance of Tairua Harbour. At the end is the childrens' bunkroom - it also has a view.
To cater for older members of an extended family, there is also a bedroom and bathroom downstairs with wider doors and wheelchair friendly bathing facilities. A ramp leads in from the double garage.
All this house needs now is people.
