Overview

Designed with distinction

Discreetly tucked down a private lane, this beautifully presented, high-spec monopitch home has been crafted for effortless living. Styled with bright neutral interiors, polished concrete rib-raft flooring with in-slab gas hydronic heating, and refined wooden feature accents, every detail has been considered to create a warm, contemporary atmosphere. The main open-plan living space is light-filled and flows seamlessly to a large, sun-soaked deck—perfect for entertaining across the expansive 945sqm section (more or less). A second living area with a double-sided bio-ethanol fireplace adds flexibility and enhances the ambience between both spaces, while large windows blur the lines between the indoors and out. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two living areas across 202sqm (more or less), this home balances modern convenience with style, quality, and comfort, offering a private, sophisticated living environment. Smartly designed with prewired cabling, TV aerials, gas boiler and infinity hot water are discreetly located in the attic space. The property also features a smart meter box, attic storage, and an EV charger outside. Landscaped gardens are irrigated and complemented by a powered garden shed. The home is thoroughly insulated throughout to above New Zealand building code standards, ensuring year-round comfort. Refined to perfection.
