10 Artistic Avenue, Cambridge, Waipa

Love the home, need the shedding!

Properties that combine genuine space, modern construction, privacy, and quality infrastructure in this location are tightly held, and increasingly difficult to find. This is a property deserving of your attention and is a great alternative to having to build to get all these features! Positioned on 2,500sqm (more or less) in one of Cambridge's most sought-after lifestyle neighbourhoods, 'Pukekura', this near new, double glazed 362sqm (more or less) home offers a level of scale and functionality rarely achieved in contemporary builds. From the moment you enter, the proportions of the home, and its orientation to capture natural sunlight all day long, stand out. High 2.55 metre ceilings, large level step sliders opening to deck, and consistently large living and bedroom spaces create a feeling of openness throughout the entire house with laminated windows in the bedrooms for an extra quiet nights sleep. 7 zone heating and cooling creates individual climate control, and established hedging gives the property a strong sense of privacy without closing it in. The design takes cues from Scandinavian architecture, with light timber grain flooring, neutral finishes, and clean lines that give the home a calm, refined feel. Every space has been designed with practicality and longevity in mind rather than short term trends. The floorplan is particularly well executed with a large kitchen in stone bench tops and expansive 3.6m centre island designed for family gatherings.

The master suite sits in its own separate wing, creating privacy between the main occupants, guests, or family members and allowing the home to adapt easily as needs change over time. It's a layout that suits families at many different stages of life and is increasingly sought after in higher end homes. Constructed in brick and cedar, the exterior balances durability with architectural warmth. The cedar detailing adds character and contrast, while the brick construction keeps maintenance requirements low over the long term. A conscious decision to avoid exposure to chemicals and allergens resulted in the home being constructed with low VOC timber framing, insulation and flooring, making home a truly safe place. If you have classic cars, or love adventure, fishing, water sports or motorhome travel, then the 10.4 x 7m shed with a 3.5m high automated roller door, will impress, and rib raft flooring, lined with full insulation and with plumbing and hot water supplying a separate toilet and fish filleting station outside, its current and future potential for further adaptation for extra accommodation granny flat, or accommodation, are maximised.

The home is on the footpaths to schooling and township, and located with access to the cycleway to Lake Karapiro, with boating, rowing, cycling, and outdoor recreation close by and the property has ample room to add a pool or tennis court.

This is a property that offers not only an exceptional home, but a lifestyle setup that is increasingly hard to replicate.
