First-class location with contemporary living

Total luxury, perfectly delivered, makes this supremely elegant and generously proportioned home a standout proposition.

Highly specified throughout, this home is as practical as it is beautiful, with its classic design palette of neutrals and the inclusion of timber flooring.

Together they demonstrate the compelling combination of elegance and pared-back simplicity which is designed to last for generations to come.

‘‘This is contemporary living without compromise,’’ says Cameron Bailey, ‘‘and its indisputable value is further enhanced by its blue-chip location and coveted zoning and proximity to the city’s best schools, including Elmwood, Heaton and Christchurch Girls’ and Boys’ high schools.’’

With its north-west orientation, the home is flooded with natural light and all-day sun, with its living spaces opening to the private, serene landscaped grounds and entertaining areas to provide yet more space in which to host family and friends over the warmer months.

The sitting and dining areas flow through to a striking, monochromatic designer kitchen with a butler’s pantry, offering space to spare in what is usually the busiest area in the home.

An adjoining, separate lounge with a gas fire provides a more formal entertaining area and a peaceful retreat from the day-today bustle of a busy household.

With five bedrooms and three bathrooms, this is a substantial home, covering some 430 square metres over two levels.

Bedrooms and bathrooms over two levels also offers separate quarters for guests and also future proofs your living.

The main bedroom upstairs is a masterpiece of design, offering every conceivable comfort and luxury, including a large walk-in wardrobe and magnificent ensuite with a sauna.

Two further double bedrooms are upstairs, together with a family bathroom, appointed to a similarly high standard, while downstairs another two bedrooms share an ensuite.

The separate laundry and triple internal-access garage take care of the practicalities in this cleverly designed home, whose address puts you conveniently close to Merivale Village and the city.

Design, detailing and an exemplary quality of finish define this desirable property which is scheduled to go under the hammer later this month.

It should come as no surprise that properties of this calibre, in this location are not destined to last long on the current market.
