Just 4 minutes drive from Kapiti Lights yet it is not until you round the last bend of the driveway that you come upon the truly eye-catching home that remains contemporary in style to this day, designed for the Vendors in 1988 by Dunedin Architect, John Palmer. A few cosmetic touches of your own will keep the home as modern as any new-build.
Nestled in a lush, green valley with an ocean view, the property is five generations in the making, brought to the market for the first time since 1891.
The Jarra door beneath the stained glass window (designed by Waikanae stained glass artist, Chris MacLean) opens to the atrium entrance from which your entertaining rooms flow to one side and your family living to the other.
Turn right into the elegant formal lounge, with a specially designed and effective open fire. Slink into the conservatory for abundant sunlight or out onto the deck for shade, or shelter away in the adjacent reading room - could be 5th bedroom, complete with wardrobe, and French doors to deck. Guest WC & shower room on this level also.
Turning left, the family room, through to dining and kitchen, is expansive, with finished Matai floor and shutters, woodburner, heatpump & double glazing. The Totara & glass door leads to the BBQ area, or dine formally in the purpose built room currently used as a office.
Upstairs are 4 generous bedrooms including Master with en suite, WIR & balcony. The main bathroom has bath, shower and WC.
Water is sourced by natural spring & UV treated. Fast fibre is connected. Double garage and 3 utility sheds complete the picture, but the atmosphere you can but only experience for yourself.
