Property files: Paste link into browser: www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/L39740223 One of two high-end architecturally designed homes, in a tightly held blue-chip position. Art and architecture converge in this striking new residence by the award-winning team at JTB Architects and developed by LARK Developments. Thoughtfully designed and impeccably executed, this four-bedroom standalone home is a confident addition to this sought-after location. Privately positioned as the rear of two high-end homes, the spacious residence is defined by restraint, balance, and craftsmanship. Inside, timber flooring, muted tones, and tactile finishes set a calm, refined mood, while double-height and raking ceilings lend a sense of volume and architectural drama. A north-west orientation ensures the open-plan living domain is flooded with natural light throughout the day. The kitchen is both sculptural and practical, anchored by a generous island and supported by a well-appointed scullery - designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining. Large sliders and stacker doors extend the living space outdoors to a deck, wrap-around garden, and secluded alfresco areas, blurring the line between interior and exterior. A separate media lounge offers a more intimate retreat. Downstairs, a guest bedroom or alternative master suite features a walk-in wardrobe and fully tiled ensuite, while provisional lift access future-proofs the home. Upstairs, the primary suite delivers understated luxury with a walk-in wardrobe, a beautifully tiled ensuite with underfloor heating, freestanding bath, and twin wall-hung vanity. Two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a dedicated study complete the upper level. Comfort and performance are embedded throughout, with ducted heating and cooling with individual room settings, a gas fire, under-tile heating, guest powder room, separate laundry, extensive storage, sleek custom cabinetry, double internal-access garaging, and additional off-street parking. The location is equally compelling. Zoned for Fendalton School, Kirkwood Intermediate, Boys' High, Girls' High and Burnside High, with private options nearby, the home sits within a vibrant inner-urban neighbourhood. Westfield Riccarton's cafes and boutiques, Hagley Park, Mona Vale, the Riccarton Bush Farmers' Market and the CBD are all effortlessly within reach. Architecturally grounded, meticulously crafted, and intuitively liveable. This is a home best appreciated in person, the scale, finishes and natural light elevate this home beyond expectation. A price adjustment of this level in such a tightly held position is rare. Immediate action is recommended, opportunities like this are quickly secured. ** Please note: Interior images and video shown are from the front residence. The rear home offered for sale features the same architectural design, layout, and high-quality specification. #ArchitecturalDesign #NewBuild #UrbanLuxury #ChchRealEstate #JustAddYou
