Elegance in Matangi

-

This elegant home nestles on a secure 2.847ha block in a quiet no-exit road in a sought-after enclave of Matangi.

The house is a Signature Homes executive, clad in kiln-fired Hinuera stone, double glazed and designed with a high-pitch roof.

“It demonstrat­es quality throughout,” says Harcourts sales consultant Bobbie Sumner, “and offers a superb indoor-outdoor lifestyle.”

Internal highlights include solid-timber flooring, a vaulted lounge ceiling and a coved family room ceiling, all of which combine to offer a sense of sophistica­tion and gracious living.

Accommodat­ion comprises four bedrooms, including a well-appointed master suite.

The extra-large kitchen has solid work surface tops, double ovens, large pantry space and plenty of room for the family to gather. It sits in the heart of the home and welcomes the early morning sun.

Living eases on to a portico for all-weather entertaini­ng and relaxed alfresco dining.

The steep roof pitch allows for a large attic space over the garage. This loft area is accessed by a fixed staircase and is ready for further developmen­t as additional living space, a children’s play room, or teenagers’ gaming lounge.

The home has plenty of creature comforts, including under-floor heating, a gas fire and a wood burner.

Infrastruc­ture is impressive. The large stand-alone shed has three-phase power and an air compressor, while the eight custom-made dog kennels are suitable for animal rearing.

An extensive orchard and vegetable patch promote a sustainabl­e lifestyle and five good-sized paddocks are ideal for running a few beefies or accommodat­ing pets.

Other enhancemen­ts are the various woodlots and a small pond in the far corner of the property. The woodlots are some 20 years old and a good source of future income.

Trentham Road is a peaceful country road tucked away from power lines and the new expressway.

It is in Hillcrest school zoning and within easy walking distance of school bus services.

“Our vendors have nearly completed their new build on a smaller section and are definitely moving on,” says Bobbie.
