Warm, inviting and showing a love for the outdoors, this home has family living at its very heart. It sits happily on a 809sqm more or less section in a fabulous spot five minutes from town. With the 260sqm more or less layout packing in five bedrooms and two lounges, there's breathing space for everyone along with a room that can be used to store toys or for an upstairs study. The easy way the interior opens to the outdoors, together with the conservatory and radiator heating, make it a comfortable home to live in year round. The breezy open-plan brings family and friends together for meals and banter, while the formal lounge is a quieter retreat for relaxing in the evening. Upstairs bedrooms gaze over the urban landscape and Mt Ngongotaha. With a pool in the fully fenced backyard, there'll be plenty takers for overnight stays. Lazy summer days can be enjoyed with friends out on the two north-facing entertainment timber decks, one being covered, overlooking the pool. The kitchen is also in direct sight of the swimming pool, which is a bonus peace-of-mind safety feature. Rounding it off is generous three-car garaging and off-street parking. Recreation close by includes the Redwood Forest for walks and mountain biking, golf courses and easy access to lakes.
