Steps from the shoreline and with walking access to a privately shared jetty, 420 Marine Drive is a rare coastal opportunity with huge appeal for bach seekers, boaties, and anyone wanting a relaxed foothold in Charteris Bay. North-facing for all-day sun and framed by beautiful harbour views, this is a property that brings you close to the water in every sense. The shared jetty and small boat ramp - used only by a handful of neighbouring homes - provide an idyllic spot for swimming, launching a kayak, or slipping a dinghy into the harbour without the crowds.

Set over three levels, the home has strong street appeal and an adaptable layout that offers plenty of scope to shape the property to your style, needs, or holiday setup. Inside, you'll find a flexible mix of spaces: two single bedrooms, two/three doubles, two/three living areas, and two newly renovated bathrooms. An office, large rumpus, workshop, and two stairwells add even more options for families, guests, or shared bach living. Generous decks on two levels open to the sun and the water outlook - perfect for long summer evenings after a day on the harbour.

A wood burner, Jetmaster open fire, and two heat pumps keep things cosy year-round, while an enclosed carport with a new garage door and excellent storage add practicality. The rear lawn flows directly onto the local reserve, giving kids room to roam and offering another access point. Loved by one family for many years, this is a comfortable home as it is, with exciting potential for modernisation, reconfiguration, or creating the ultimate multi-generation or holiday retreat.

Just three minutes from Diamond Harbour and zoned for Cashmere High School, you'll have easy access to local amenities including Diamond Harbour School, KidsFirst Kindergarten, the Four Square, and Two Thumb Brew Bar. With the ferry to Lyttelton providing an easy city connection, this is your chance to secure a coastal base where weekends, summers, and family gatherings are all about the water.
