A waterfront townhouse with its own pontoon has hit the Darwin market with million dollar views minus the seven-figure price tag.

The three-bedroom property at 3/44 O’Ferrals Rd, Bayview, is on a 539 sqm block with pool, double garage, plenty of outdoor living space and marina views.

The current owner said the two-storey property was perfect for low-maintenance waterside entertaining.

“It’s a very liveable place with the indoor-outdoor area and the pool at the back door,” he said.

“We have a lovely view out over the marina and it’s nice to sit there and look out over the boating world.

“There’s also quite a lot of wildlife about, we often see sea eagles and kites.

“Being the end townhouse, it gets lots of natural light and you can open it up to the breezes.

“It’s a lovely and cool home where you don’t need to run the aircon all the time.”

Having owned a catamaran, the owner said the property was perfect for anyone who likes to get out on the water.

“We could have our boat right there on the pontoon, which was handy,” he said.

“We could easily take it out and enjoy racing, fishing or cruising with friends on the harbour.

“And the almost-new landing is maintenance free – it’s all fibreglass with no timber in it at all, so it won’t rot.

“I reckon it’s the best pontoon in Bayview.”

Spread across two levels, the townhouse has a double garage, powder room and laundry on the ground floor along with an open plan living, dining and kitchen area opening to the balcony, pool and deck.

“The kitchen is very much an entertainer’s kitchen,” the owner said.

“It’s great to work in and you’re still part of everything when who have people over.”

The kitchen has stainless steel Miele appliances, stone benchtops and plenty of storage while the living space have built-in media cabinets and surround sound.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms with built-in robes, a family bathroom and a second living space opening to a balcony with marina views.

The main bedroom has a big built-in robe, an ensuite with double shower, balcony access and marina views as well.

“That double shower is like a dream,” the owner said.

The property has established landscaping and is in a complex of three.

“The home really feels more like a house than a townhouse,” the owner said.

“It has its own clothesline, garden and outdoor shower as well as lots of storage, which made it better than any other townhouse we looked at when buying.”

The property is close to the Darwin CBD and has easy access to Tiger Brennan Drive.
