Step inside this generously sized 180m2 family home in the central plateau town of Turangi, and you will immediately appreciate the spaciousness and thoughtful layout. A large open plan living, dining and kitchen space is the main attraction on the first floor and a recent addition with modern living in mind. In the kitchen, there is plenty of storage and bench space suitable for a large family. Skylights add brightness to this part of the home. A ULEB fireplace adds a cozy ambiance to this main living and dining area but there is also a heat pump for heating and cooling. The kitchen and dining is complemented by the large stacker sliding door with fly screen, leading to the outdoor entertaining deck and patio. The laundry room provides more convenient storage and an additional toilet on the ground floor.
With four generously sized bedrooms plus a study/office, it is a perfect home or escape for the whole family. The large master bedroom on the second floor is equipped with a private ensuite bathroom as well as a walk-in wardrobe with built in storage and stunning views of Mt. Pihanga. There are also two more double bedrooms on the second floor and an updated family bathroom with shower over tub. An open plan office/landing finishes off the second floor and allows plenty of light and warmth to the second floor. The sliding doors across the front of the home grant access to the deck on the second floor from each room. There is plenty of clever storage for the whole family. The fourth bedroom and study/office and another full bathroom are located on the ground floor and provides a self-contained space within the home that could be used as an in-law suite or rental with its own entrance but could also easily be opened up to connect to the main living area and reimagined as a ground floor master suite. The main room currently set up as a studio apartment has its own heat pump and efficiency kitchenette and the study is currently used as a single bedroom but it would make a nice main floor office if needed.
Insulation, double glazed windows, flooring updates and cohesive paint choices throughout the property adds value and comfort throughout. The gardens in the front and rear of the property are easy care and are a mix of native plantings and regeneration and veggie gardens. There is still room for a swing set or other yard games for families in the front or back. There is plenty of parking in the front and to the rear of the property and with a spacious two-car garage there is also room for a boat or RV. The 683m2 section (more or less) is located on a quiet dead end street conveniently close to local schools, the popular Tongariro River Trail, and the Tongariro River. It is ready for the whole family so contact Dorene today for a private viewing.
