Elevated from the road, on a parklike rear section, this lovely private family home radiates a relaxed Mediterranean elegance. Architecturally designed, the house was created to fulfill your family's every need - there is nothing to do but move in and enjoy the fruits of our vendors' labour.
The ground floor is home to the family spaces, which are open plan, yet distinct. The well-equipped country kitchen overlooks the immaculate front garden, and is separated from the dining area by a breakfast bar. The spacious lounge has beautiful timber and glass doors on either side, allowing access to the tiled wraparound verandah and the private rear patio. The generous study or spare bedroom has bespoke cabinetry and its own access to the patio, and the guest bathroom and toilet complete the ground floor.
Venture upstairs - or take the lift - where the master bedroom takes pride of place at the front of the house, with a tiled balcony overlooking the neighbourhood. Furnished with a walk-in wardrobe and en suite, this light-filled sanctuary will be your retreat from the cares of the day. Two additional double bedrooms - one with two double wardrobes - and the generous main bathroom provide for all the family, and the landing has excellent storage with a large walk-in storeroom and two linen cupboards.
The double garage has internal access through the laundry, and houses a workbench, a water softener, and a central vacuum system. Two solar hot water panels on the roof will keep costs down, and the back-up gas hot water cylinder ensures you will never run out. Underfloor heating adds to the warmth and comfort, and makes it the perfect house for year-round enjoyment.
The lovingly tended gardens surround the home and seem to transport you to the Italian countryside. Located on desirable St Johns Hill, close to great schooling of all levels and the scenic Rotokawau Virginia Lake Reserve, this really is a home for the ages. Call Kim or Duncan to appreciate this timeless beauty for yourself.
