Overview

SUPERBLY BUILT, STANDALONE

With their next move already made, the motivated vendors are opening the door to a contemporary home where architectural quality and a luxury finish give low-maintenance family living a high-end edge. Built in 2025 and privately positioned to the rear of tree-lined St James Avenue, the contemporary exterior brings brick and cedar into sharp contrast, while interiors by Tuuta Home & Design take the finish further through herringbone flooring, clean-lined detailing and a distinctly premium finish. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is built around free-flowing functionality, with a substantial island giving the designer kitchen its social centre, backed by premium Bosch appliances and integrated refrigeration. A feature gas fire gives the lounge its focus, while a separate living room brings valuable division to the floor plan, giving families the flexibility to host company and claim quieter quarters. An extremely easy-care property with artificial lawn, the outdoor living takes on several settings. Moving from a deck off the dining area to a smaller connected deck shared by the lounge and ground-floor bedroom, while a paved patio provides a dedicated destination for dining and three stretches of lawn within established landscaping put entertaining and everyday enjoyment firmly in the picture. Accommodation carries considerable flexibility across four bedrooms, beginning with a ground-floor en-suite option that gives guests or extended family their own domain. Upstairs, three further bedrooms include a high-stud master suite with a walk-in robe and en-suite, while the family bathroom continues the fully tiled aesthetic carried cohesively throughout all three bathrooms. Heat pumps keep comfort covered, while a separate laundry and ground-floor WC ease the everyday workload. Internal-access double garaging and off-street parking comfortably accommodate family vehicles and visitors, while the electric gate ensures security and bonus being a rear property with its own driveway so no navigating the neighbours. Convenience covers both the everyday and the educational, with Northlands close by and direct routes to Merivale and the city, while St Andrew's College and zoning for Waimairi School, Cobham Intermediate and Heaton Intermediate strengthen the schooling line-up. For families wanting more lifestyle without more land, this property delivers space, specification and architectural style, with committed vendors ready to see it sold.
