8 Glengarriff Drive, Tai Tapu, Selwyn

More space, more options

Price by negotiation
Scale and detail are leading features of this substantial home on 4.03 hectares that can accommodate sizeable families or scores of guests in considerable comfort and style. Conveniently located just over 3km to Tai Tapu township and 5km to Lincoln, there are popular schools (zoned for Tai Tapu School and Lincoln High School), a great array of shops, restaurants and amenities all within a short drive and an easy commute into the city. Constructed in 2007, this GJ Gardner home has a staggering 321sqm floorplan containing five en-suited bedrooms, making it ideal as a large family residence or a well-appointed B&B. Most bedrooms also enjoy the advantage of a walk-in wardrobe and outdoor access, including the well-specified master suite. A peacefully removed bedroom also adjoins the media room, which is finished with a kitchenette, ensuring it's a perfect self-contained retreat for extended family, visitors or teens. Renovations have raised the style stakes in recent years. The kitchen received a redesign by Palazzo, while the garage was also converted into a games room to provide a superb breakaway setting for kids. This thoughtfully altered space could be reverted back to a garage. The primary open-plan living area hosts the chic kitchen accompanied by a walk-in pantry, while the dining area and lounge complete this social centre. Entertaining is bliss within the grounds, where a built in outdoor kitchen/BBQ zone, easy-care gardens and a children's play fort present an exceptional alfresco environment for families. Secure undercover garaging for three cars is provided by the three-bay barn with roller doors that should easily cover any vehicle or external storage needs. The sheltered site features three road frontages, functional rural amenities including seven paddocks, a well, a chicken coop and a shade house. Think to the future with this property and its possibilities. Download the property file: http://www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/5519939
