About this property

LARGE FAMILY HOME - Short Walk to Two Beaches & Netflix

You will love your stay at my well-maintained and well appointed home that has everything you need for a comfortable holiday.

Ideal for larger extended family groups, with bedrooms across two levels and two bathrooms (renovated main bathroom and a small ensuite bathroom).

There are large dinning and sitting room areas (includes extra large smart TV with Netflix, pics have not yet been updated to show new TV) and a purpose buiIt outdoor entertaining area with comfy couches, and a small BBQ. There is a further wrap around deck at the back with additional outdoor seating, so you can follow the sun!

The kitchen is generously stocked and includes all whiteware, including a dishwasher. The newly renovated bathroom has a double vanity, 'rain' showerhead, bath, heated towel rail and washing machine.

In this four bedroom property there are two large bedrooms with queen bed suites (the master bedroom has a small ensuite bathroom). There are two additional smaller bedrooms, one with two bunk beds (sleeping four) and the other with one bunk bed (sleeping two). Beautifully styled with comfort for larger groups in mind.

The home is set on a secluded, large 670m2 section and offers a private and tranquil place to enjoy a holiday. Entertain on the deck with the outdoor furniture supplied and the small BBQ.

Prime coastal location which is a short walk to the following two beaches:
1. Winston's Cove (450m walk from the cottage) is one of Auckland's best kept secrets and is an ideal spot for a swimming and relaxing. It's our favourite little beach spot in Auckland.

2. Waiake Beach (650m walk from the cottage) is a beautiful bay that is good for swimming and boating. It has a sheltered estuary to one side of the beach which is great for kids. There are also a number of picnic/bbq facilities and a children's playground just off the beach. For the best home-made ice cream, head over the road to Tides Cafe.

Comfortable Home in Torbay
Marianne is one of the best hosts we have ever encountered. She is friendly, warm and incredibly responsive. My youngest daughter left her phone under the bed on the property. Not only did Marianne collect it for us, but she also arranged for a collection that was more convenient for us. We had everything we needed at the property. it is a short walk to the small downtown of Torbay and about 10–15-minute walk to the beach.

Lovely clean and warm home with great space that suited our needs - lovely outside lounging area
Great - communication was really good with the property owner. The house was great and had a lovely family feel to it. Well spaced out and having the internet and Netflix was an added bonus for the kids.
