Two Homes... One Remarkable Property

Auction: On-site 1 pm Friday 24th July 2026 (unless sold prior) Property Files available here: https://www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/50Norris There are properties that tick boxes, and then there are properties that redefine what's possible. Thoughtfully designed from the ground up with energy efficiency, natural light, and functional family living at its core, this extraordinary two-dwelling property offers a lifestyle that is genuinely hard to find and even harder to walk away from. THE MAIN RESIDENCE - Designed to Impress, Built to Last Step inside, and the intention is immediately apparent. Soaring exposed timber beam ceilings, rich polished bamboo floors, and a commanding stone feature wall create an interior that feels both architecturally bold and deeply warm. This is a home where every design decision has been made with purpose. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area is the beating heart of the home, generous in scale, flooded with natural light through double-glazed UPVC windows, and anchored by a designer kitchen featuring stone benchtops, white cabinetry, quality appliances, and an island that works as hard as it looks good. A second lounge offers a quieter retreat, warmed by the freestanding log fire and its heat transfer system a combination that efficiently distributes warmth throughout the entire home. Solar panels on the roof further cement this home's credentials as a genuinely energy-efficient residence, designed not just to look good, but to perform. The master suite is a true retreat - spacious, private, and complete with its own fully appointed ensuite featuring a large tiled shower, vanity and toilet. The additional three bedrooms are well-proportioned, and the main bathroom delivers a luxurious bath, separate shower and vanity.
