Step back to peak 1980's, with this architect-designed home, located in the Hastings Primary School zone, right next to parkland, offering a unique environment that is rarely found in our densely populated town. North facing and perched up on Transit Hill, in a quiet street, this character filled home enjoys a retro take on modern living. The 1980s spawned a unique era in modern home design, and this two-level home, bursting with original features, is a classic example of why it's back in vogue. It boasts soaring raked ceilings, exposed beams and expansive glazing, adding abundant natural light. A curved entry path, boarded by lush gardens, guide you to the private entry, hidden front the street. Once open, the formal entry reveals a vast open space that forms the main living zone. Full width glazing takes advantage of the northly aspect to allowing light to bounce off the timber lined raked ceilings, creating a comforting glow to this inviting space along with a relaxed parkland vista. With plenty of room for creativity, the main living can accommodate multiple furniture configurations to make your desired lifestyle, work with ease. Overlooking the main living area, out to the wide deck and onto the park, the original full timber kitchen has been well-cared for and allows modernisation options without breaking the bank, or just continue to take advantage of the functional design that features loads of storage and workspace. Flowing to the outdoors, the north facing balcony takes in a relaxing picture of the natural flora and fauna with a distant hint of the ocean. Broad dimensions showcase an expanse that can accommodate outdoor dining and lounging, further adding another dimension to this unique home. Sleeping accommodation is made up of four rooms serviced by two bathrooms. The main could be one of either of the two north facing bedrooms giving you options to take advantage of the bespoke floorplan. The 4th is downstairs and is large enough to be used as either a second living area or a fabulous place for an older child with a 3rd toilet next door and a separate entrance away from the rest of the home. Storage is also plentiful featuring a double garage, under house storeroom and a place for a boat or van to be parked off the street. Other features included updated lighting, fresh carpet and paint as well as air conditioning for when the cool summer breeze isn't blowing.
