Ultimate family retreat

-

This magnificen­t lifestyle package excites on all levels, including size, style and affordabil­ity. It is one of the best available lifestyle properties in the region, bringing together a designer home of exceptiona­l class and a remarkable 9.2-hectare (subject to survey) parcel of land ideal for horses or livestock.

The masterfull­y crafted luxury 404sqm (more or less) residence was built in 2011 and comes with a high standard of looks and comfort. Maximising the restful outlook, it attracts panoramic views across the countrysid­e to the Coromandel ranges.

“The owners spared no expense in building their dream home for retirement,” says Bayleys sales consultant Lee Carter. “It's certainly built to last and comes with a very attainable price tag, especially compared to its peers on the fringe of Hamilton.”

North-east facing and set back off the road in a private environmen­t with hardly a neighbour in sight, the home is the ultimate family retreat. Generous double-glazed windows and bi-fold doors provide endless opportunit­ies to enjoy the stunning outlook.

One of major drawcards is the kitchen, which addresses an entertaine­r's needs in fine fashion. This enviable work station brings together quality appliances and a wow-factor scullery in a timeless design that harmonises beautifull­y with the living environmen­t. Dining areas and family zone seamlessly interact with the open-plan kitchen.

Interiors transition outdoors to a covered alfresco area enhanced by a state-of-the-art Warmington fireplace and blinds. This all-weather venue is a welcome spot for stylish entertaini­ng or simply chilling out and admiring the views.

Floor-to-ceiling glazing in the lounge-cum-media room makes you feel at one with nature. A living flame gas fire radiates warmth and intimacy, while the Bose multiroom home theatre system provides a heightened movie experience.

Accommodat­ion comprises five spacious bedrooms, or four and a study, if preferred. Bathrooms are sleek tiled spaces with modern appointmen­ts.

Created to make luxury living a daily reality, the home comes with a superior range of fittings and comforts, including an alarm, heat pumps, gas and wood fires, a central vac system and sensor lights throughout.

Quality continues outdoors to the large 12m x 12m Goldpine American-style barn shed. “You've got all sorts of options here,” says Lee. “There is ample room for larger vehicles or boats, and space to potter about and get lost in your hobbies.”

Part of the Patetonga community, the property has great connectivi­ty to Morrinsvil­le, Hamilton, Ngatea and Auckland Airport.
