1 Kaituna Place, Havelock, Marlborough

There are homes that simply just provide the bare necessities, and then there are homes that change the way you feel the moment you arrive. Elevated above the ever-changing waters of the Havelock Marina and embraced by native bush, this is a place where mornings begin with sunlight spilling across the deck and evenings unfold against a backdrop of shimmering lights and tranquil views. Thoughtfully transformed over time, the home strikes a beautiful balance between contemporary sophistication and relaxed warmth, creating an environment that feels both refined and deeply welcoming.Inside, every detail has been carefully considered. The open plan kitchen, dining, and living area forms the heart of the home, with generous proportions and an effortless connection to the outdoors. The kitchen is a standout, pairing sleek black overhead cabinetry and a stunning waterfall bench top with the softer character of timber under bench cupboards, all complemented by premium Bosch appliances. New flooring, LED lighting, window treatments, and fresh internal paintwork add to the polished finish, while the wetback fireplace and heat transfer system ensure year-round comfort. Three genuine double bedrooms each feature double wardrobes, with the master suite enjoying its own ensuite and ranch slider to the deck. The main bathroom is beautifully updated and generously proportioned, complete with a bathtub, while a separate toilet with vanity adds further practicality.Step outside and the home truly comes into its own. Wrap-around decking connects the living area, the master bedroom and beyond, capturing all-day sun and framing spectacular views over Havelock Marina and the surrounding bush-clad hills. Whether entertaining friends, enjoying a quiet coffee, or simply taking in the ever-changing scenery, this is an outdoor space that invites you to slow down and savour the setting. The property itself has been designed for ease, with partially fenced grounds, low-maintenance landscaping, and three garden sheds providing excellent additional storage.Practicality is every bit as impressive as the outlook. A double internal access garage incorporates the laundry and offers extensive storage, while a second double drive-through driveway leads to a secure carport with garage door. With abundant off-street parking, there is ample room for boats, caravans, trailers, and more. Significant upgrades including external repainting, enhanced decking, a water filtration system, and partial re-wiring and re-plumbing provide peace of mind and lasting value. This is a home that must be experienced in person to fully appreciate its quality, its comfort, and above all, its extraordinary views. Opportunities like this are rarely available for long.If you would like to know more or view this property, get in contact with Mala on 027 573 4873 or Luke on 027 257 9080 or mala.luke@totalrealty.co.nz
