Overview

Riverfront Family Paradise

Positioned directly on the banks of the Waikato River within one of Hamilton's most prestigious residential enclaves, a total remodel in 2007 by highly regarded local Master Builders SJR Builders has delivered this refurbished five-bedroom, three-bathroom dual-living masterpiece. No expense has been spared in transforming this already-enviable property into something truly extraordinary. A complete top-to-toe refurbishment means a home that carries all the warmth and character of an established riverside address, now wrapped in the finishes and appointments of a contemporary premium residence. At its heart, a stunning new designer kitchen with dedicated scullery sets the tone; a space designed as much for the serious home chef as it is for effortless entertaining. The kitchen flows seamlessly into generous open-plan living and dining areas that seem to draw the river right inside, before spilling out onto expansive decks where the Waikato River and the verdant beauty of Days Park form your ever-changing backdrop. This is alfresco living at its finest. Five spacious double bedrooms ensure every member of the family enjoys their own sanctuary. The crowning jewel is the elevated primary suite on the top floor; a private retreat with sweeping, uninterrupted views up and down the river that will make every morning feel like a getaway. When the day calls for something more indulgent, the stunning sun-soaked swimming pool awaits, a resort-quality addition that transforms the property into a private retreat the whole family will love. Double internal-access garaging keeps vehicles and weekend toys secure and sheltered, while ample off-street parking ensures guests are always welcome. Fenced and gated, you can relax and know that kids and pets are safe. Step outside the gate and Days Park is right there with its open green space, river walks, and nature at your doorstep. Families with school-age children will appreciate the proximity to some of Hamilton's most sought-after schools, including Waikato Dio and St Paul's Collegiate, while some of the very best of the city's dining, retail, and amenities are just minutes away. River Road itself speaks to those who know Hamilton well. An address synonymous with prestige, privacy, and permanence; an address where properties of this calibre are held tightly and rarely offered to the market. Twenty-five years of love, laughter, and living have shaped this home into something special. The current owners have poured their hearts, and considerable investment, into ensuring it is passed on in its finest-ever condition. Now it awaits a new family to fall in love with it all over again. Contact us today to arrange your private viewing.
