Totally Captivating Contemporary Living
Set to captivate with its elegant distinction and unbeatable location, this striking, contemporary, home has style, space and stature to spare.
With majestic living spaces, and impeccable interior design, it offers an outstanding lifestyle on its large private section.
Configured over two floors, the five double bedrooms, office and three bathrooms, two of which are ensuites, allows you to spread your wings in luxurious and highly specified surroundings.
From the magnificent, vaulted ceilings, exquisite light fittings, oak flooring and clever use of imported wallpaper, this home seriously raises the bar in its design and execution.
Detailing that includes incorporating barn doors, and the inspired use of ebony coloured paint to create immediate impact in the entry, is typical of the time and talent that has gone into creating these spaces.
Its north-facing aspect captures all-day sun and natural light at every turn, and each room has a grand feel, which is amplified in the open plan kitchen, dining and living area, where the soaring ceiling and sliding doors to the grounds create a sublime space in which to relax and entertain.
Established plantings are enhanced with professional landscaping by Xteriorscapes, creating a green oasis with extensive decking and a central outdoor Jetmaster open fire under an outdoor arena with an automatic louvered roof.
The kitchen and scullery is as functional as it is fabulous, with summer dining seeing you out, more than in.
Over winter you can settle down in wraparound comfort in this insulated, double-glazed wonder which has two heat pumps, a gas fire and under-tile heating in all three bathrooms.
Practicalities such as the study, separate laundry, extralarge double garaging and offstreet parking are all present and correct, as is the superb location.
The highly desirable area of Strowan places you less than five minutes from Elmwood Village and the Merivale Precinct, and puts you right in the zone for Christchurch Boys and Girls High Schools, along with Heaton Intermediate and Waimairi Primary School.
St Andrew’s College is just a short walk away, effectively putting an end to the school run, as is the green expanse of Elmwood Park.
An inspired partnership between Krush Architecture and Ainsworth Builders have brought you the best of both worlds here, with all the benefits of modern construction, and the warmth of a character home.
