Luxury Townhouses with Lake Outlook

-

Superbly set to overlook the reflective waters and native plantings of the Preston Lakes and Reserves are a boutique complex of six, three bedroom plus study townhouses with exquisite designer finishes and quality inclusions. Designed to accommodat­e a relaxed low maintenanc­e lifestyle whilst their proximity to the city and local amenities (golf courses, Bottle Lake Forest) make these houses a very practical choice for those who want to exit the busier streets of central Christchur­ch. Constructe­d with an emphasis on quality with a lightweigh­t concrete and cedar exterior in a colour combinatio­n of Alabaster White and Grey Friars joinery they offer a timeless design that won’t easily date. Double garaging with automatic doors, drive through access, together with double glazing and aluminium joinery takes care of the practical elements while the interior design has been kept deliberate­ly under stated. Charcoal grey carpet throughout the living, stairs and bedroom areas and walls painted off white make it simple to create your own personal style. A combinatio­n of under tile heating, two heat pumps, one up and one down, together with highly specked insulation promises a comfortabl­y warm winter while the north facing living makes the most of the sun year round. Cooks will be pleased to see a combinatio­n of Fisher & Paykel appliances and a generous amount of sleek white cabinetry with brush steel hardware. A central island, together with the back bench and walk in pantry ensures plenty of room for food preparatio­n and a useful breakfast area. The adjacent dining and living area opens through sliding doors to a hardwood decking and concrete aggregate patio within a sheltered courtyard with perimeter planting. Completing the downstairs is a guest toilet and a glass partitione­d study/office adjacent to the front entry. The stairs feature a glass balustrade and stainless steel handrails. Off the landing area are two large double bedrooms each with built in wardrobes, and serviced by a large tiled family bathroom, vanity, shower and separate toilet. The main bedroom has a large ensuite with tiled shower, vanity, and toilet and enjoys panoramic views to the north and west. There is additional storage courtesy of a separate linen room off the landing. The state of the art appliance, combined with the well executed design and high quality finish will appeal to many who require contempora­ry living with an absolute minimum of upkeep. As an investment in modern living these stylish townhouses have the added bonus of being designed to lock up and leave making them perfect for those who travel frequently. It’s rare to find sites like these that offer uncompromi­sed views of lakes and distant mountains. Arguably these would be the best of what any new urban lifestyle can offer.
