25 Waterhouse Street, Taradale, Napier, Hawke’s Bay, 4112, New Zealand

Often sought, but seldom found – this large family-sized home with secure family-sized grounds in a top-rate Taradale West street is an absolute corker. Four bedrooms plus an office, two bathrooms, a garage with a workshop and a third toilet, and a well-planted, fully fenced section are must-haves for many buyers. Add in a new roof (installed just weeks ago), extra parking for boat or trailer, superb indoor / outdoor flow accessed via three sets of French doors from the living areas out onto a private, sheltered deck for easy entertaining, and this well-maintained colonial-style home becomes a very hot property.

 

Light, natural decor meshes with the original character features to provide a fresh yet solid cohesive look and feel – the brightness of the new with the permanence of the old. The kitchen has an efficient galley-style layout with loads of storage, including an appliance garage, and a bi-fold window which not only allows maximum air flow for the cook during the summer months, but acts as a servery hatch to diners on the deck. The bedrooms are all good sizes and the bathrooms airy and modern.

 

The large 1186sqm section encourages children and pets to work off excess energy while still leaving plenty of quiet spots for you to curl up and finish your summer reads wherever well-established plantings offer privacy and shade.

 

Named after Taradale’s first Town Clerk, Waterhouse Street is perennially popular due to its well-established and carefully tended homes and gardens, and its proximity to schools and amenities.
