Nerita is Long Bay's most exciting new residential development - 28 multi-level, freehold terraced homes that celebrate life by the beach. The residences are divided into four buildings and have been architecturally-designed by Jennifer Hanson of A Studio Architects. Nerita means 'from the sea,' and it was the ocean that Jennifer used as the inspiration for every element of these high-quality homes. Each has been thoughtfully considered and cleverly planned as a warm, contemporary, light-filled haven, surrounded by great indoor/ outdoor living spaces. There is a choice of six different layouts at Nerita, which have been designed to accommodate all kinds of living requirements and life stages. The larger homes have four bedrooms and two bathrooms, others have three bedrooms, or two plus a versatile study. All have either a garage or at least one carpark right outside the door. With another recent local development, Long Shore, completely sold out, Nerita is sure to garner immense interest from buyers who wish so start their dream lifestyle by the beach. Slightly elevated on a gentle slope above Vaughan's Stream and Long Bay Regional Park, homes at Nerita shelter in a natural amphitheatre, basking in the warmth of the northerly sun. The development is nestled in a peaceful setting, back across the bridge from the village, yet the sand, surf and shops are just a moment's walk from home. Long Bay is one of Auckland's most unique locations, where residents enjoy direct access to the kilometre-long golden beach and extensive reserve, filled with barbecue sites and picnic tables. Long Bay-Okura Marine Reserve also provides great diving, snorkelling, boating and kayaking. The architecturally-designed village is filled with cafes, bars and restaurants and is well- connected by public transport to the rest of Auckland - buses to Torbay, Albany and the city leave every half hour. Children's education is well-catered for, with Long Bay Primary and Long Bay College within walking distance. Nerita's building designs showcase three distinctive moods, all inspired by the magnificent coastal environment, and are enveloped within beautiful native landscaping. With many professionals now requiring the ability to work from home, layouts offer flexibility, plus superior acoustic performance ensures sound-proofing between residences. All feature high-end inclusions and premium, bespoke finishes, quality appliances, engineered stone bench tops and well-designed bathrooms. Nerita has been brought to life by Templeton Group.
