There's something special about waking up with the water in view and knowing the coast is right outside your door. Elevated above beautiful Charteris Bay, this two-storey home combines panoramic bay and hill views with a relaxed coastal lifestyle and plenty of potential to make it your own.

The home already has some great foundations in place, with an updated kitchen and modernised bathroom taking care of two of the key living spaces. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms provide plenty of flexibility, whether you're looking for a family home, a holiday escape or a place where friends and family can come and stay.

Then there's the opportunity. Sold on an "as is, where is" basis and set on a generous 761sqm section (more or less), this is a property where vision could really pay off. Renovators and builders will see plenty to work with, while buyers looking for a project can take their time, add value and create something that suits their lifestyle. The combination of land, views and location gives you a fantastic starting point.

Outside, there's a carport plus additional off-street parking, with plenty of room for cars, boats or trailers. The sheltered, native bush-clad section is alive with birdlife, while an established vegetable garden, figs, plums and olives are ready to make the most of come summer.

And then there's the lifestyle. Charteris Bay is a water sports playground, with easy access for wing foiling, windsurfing and dinghy sailing at all tides. With Charteris Bay Yacht Club just metres away, you can have the water and sailing right on your doorstep.

Families are well catered for too, with Diamond Harbour Primary School and Cashmere High School zones, plus school bus pick-up and drop-off just around 100 metres away. Diamond Harbour is just minutes away, giving you access to cafe's, medical services and the ferry to Lyttelton.

The views are already here. The lifestyle is too. Now imagine what you could do with the rest.
