Position, style and space - this home has it all. A family friendly residence with grounds of epic proportions and warm contemporary design, the current owners have well and truly brought this solid 1970s property up to the present.
Thoroughly and beautifully refurbished inside and out, unwind in the double glazed living area flowing through stacker doors to the eminently liveable exterior spaces.
These multiple outdoor zones take advantage of the unbeatable Hawke's Bay weather no matter the season - dine beneath the long covered north west facing verandah while the kids splash in the huge inground swimming pool, or sip a gin and tonic with friends and craft masterchef magic at the outdoor pizza oven in one of the private courtyards before taking a meander in the extensive, beautifully landscaped terraced gardens.
In summer, picnic in the idyllic woodland at the bottom of the garden, it truly doesn't get better than this. Originally part of the iconic neighbouring Hillington Estate, the 3554sqm (more or less) secluded grounds are a celebration of private and tranquil established native plantings, fruit trees and birdlife.
Inside, the new kitchen and separate dining ensures mealtimes are fuss-free and enjoyable affairs, while sleeping is kept in another wing of the house, with four bedrooms, two of which open out to the verandah for morning coffees in the sun. A Jack and Jill bathroom off the master plus a handy second WC off the laundry means easy access for everyone.
This is an incredibly special and tranquil spot close to the village and Te Mata Peak, great schools and easy access to the best this sought after area has to offer. With two sheds for storage plus a carport, here is family living the way it should be.
