Halswell haven
The collaboration between the owners and acclaimed architectural designer John Curtin has resulted in outstanding design with total style and functionality in this contemporary Halswell home within the exclusive Quarry View subdivision.
It is set on an impressive 2795 square metres of professionally landscaped grounds which give you the potential to subdivide, with a further four sections able to be realised, or retain the whole site and enjoy your own private park-like grounds.
Rarely are properties of this size and specification found, offering so many choices within the city’s boundary.
With a floor plan that covers an impressive 388 square metres, this extraordinary home unfolds into a series of beautifully appointed spaces that include two living rooms, four double bedrooms and three highly specified bathrooms including two full ensuites and one with dual access.
Three of the four double bedrooms open directly to the grounds, taking every advantage of the shelter and privacy a site of this size allows and the main suite has a large walk-in wardrobe.
Add to this internal access garaging for more than four vehicles and you have found yourself a home that offers living on a grand scale with exceptional detailing and quality of finish.
Clever use of a combination of oak flooring, dove grey-coloured carpet and a clean white colour palette have created a beautiful home where the sheer joie de vivre of the imported wallpaper for the feature walls, comfort and ambience of gas fires inside and out and space to spare are just the start of the long list of features.
It is the schist and cedar detailing, extensive use of glass and exceptional interior design that sets this home head and shoulders above what is usually expected from a family home.
The clean lines and conspicuous lack of clutter in the designer kitchen is made possible by a combination of good design and a full butler’s kitchen, allowing the combined kitchen, dining and family living area to be one glorious north-facing expanse in which to entertain.
That generous space extends even further when you slide back the glass doors to allow access to the similarly highly specified, covered outdoor entertaining areas which include an outdoor fire in a schist surround and spa pool area.
The vast expanse of green lawn will easily accommodate a tennis court, pool and pool house if you choose, or you can simply sit and admire the view and all the space on offer.
Double-height ceilings start in the foyer and continue through to the family living area creating large, light-filled spaces.
The timeless decor and singlelevel build future-proofs this home for many years to come.
Symmetry and style define this property which has been perfectly designed and executed.
The combination of doubleglazing, full insulation, electric and gas heating and all-day sun also make it supremely comfortable and energy efficient.
Evident throughout is the exceptional attention to detail,
quality of finish and well-chosen fixtures and fittings.
It is this eye for design, together with the immaculately maintained grounds, that make this home such an attractive proposition for many.
The popular location of Halswell has long been the area of choice for those who want secluded and secure surroundings with an easy commute to schools, services, retail, cafe and restaurants while staying out of the bustle of the city.
For your recreational convenience, the Halswell Quarry Park and Port Hills are right at your door step, ensuring a lifestyle with balance.
It’s a stand-out proposition that will attract those who appreciate all the benefits that an exceptionally well-executed design offers.
