AGELESS BEAUTY - RESORT STYLE FUNCTIONALITY
Electric gates and a concrete driveway lead through park-like landscaped grounds on this 2.87 hectare (7.09 acre) property to arrive at a magnificent historic home, architecturally spectacular and internally modernized to offer an exemplary lifestyle without surrendering any of its distinctive charm. Nestled in established bush filled with beautiful birdlife including Kereru, Tui, and Piwakawaka, The Old Coach House is one of Ramarama’s most admired heritage homes and was originally a rest stop for travellers journeying between the Great South Road and Thames in the early 1900’s.
A tree-lined driveway parts to reveal a snapshot of this home’s exquisite beauty showcasing bullnose verandahs, ornate and wrap around verandahs and the wide door resplendent with colourful stained glass accessing the entry hall. 3.6 metre ceilings, some ornately patterned, add to the serene open ambience here. Surrounding the central kitchen, the lounge, sundrenched dining with window wall, and family living all flow out to garden-side al fresco leisure, sophisticated entertaining under the pitched timber-decked gazebo and resort style recreation on the fenced Astro turf tennis court and the solar heated salt water pool.
Totally modern, the kitchen is excellently appointed with benchtops, induction cooktop, premium Bosch and Fisher & Paykel appliances, wine fridge and English farmhouse sink. In the family room a feature built-in fire with brick surround and chimney is a show-stopper and the lounge also features a wood-burning fire. Comfort is completely assured in this elegant residence which also has individually controlled eight zone reverse cycle air conditioning as well as full insulation. Four well-proportioned bedrooms include the sumptuous master suite with spacious walk-in robe and double vanity ensuite, a lavish second also has its own ensuite and large wardrobe, and the remaining two are both sunlit and feature built-in wardrobes and views.
The family bathroom is large and lovely and with bath, separate shower and linen storage while the spacious adjoining laundry features storage. There’s also three door triple garaging with EV charger, a tool shed with 3 phase power, abundant extra parking and approximately two hectares of gently sloping grazing in eight paddocks. All this and more is located within easy reach of Ramarama motorway access, the planned Drury Metropolitan Centre, Drury South Crossing and the new train station, and is zoned for Ramarama School, Rosehill College and Papakura High School. This is a residence of the highest calibre, a home for the connoisseur.
