Downsizing in Style

-

Life just keeps getting better with a beautiful property like this to come home to! Though downsizing makes sense, with less home and garden to maintain leaving you more time to spend on other pursuits, it can feel like a compromise on the lifestyle you’re used to. These three brand-new over-60s homes in popular Travis Country offer all the convenienc­e you’re looking for – without compromisi­ng on comfort and style.

Set in a quiet, no-exit lane, all three homes look north across Clarevale Reserve. This leafy, green outlook gives a welcome sense of space and tranquilli­ty – the perfect backdrop for a neatly landscaped, easy-care garden. Walking trails virtually on the doorstep connect to Travis Wetland, making getting back to nature easy, and Waimairi Beach, Bottle Lake Forest and numerous golf courses are all within easy reach for those who like to stay active.

In this quiet setting, these newly built homes exude contempora­ry style. Smart exterior design teams Linea and Rockcote in crisp white and graphite – a pairing that will stand the test of time and offer enduring good looks while requiring the minimum of maintenanc­e. A tiled separate entrance sets the tone for a home that is a cut above, leading to spacious open-plan living/dining and the view beyond.

Positioned for generous sunshine, with a heat-pump for year-round climate control, living is comfortabl­e in any season. Double sliders push back, making the large deck an extension of the home for relaxing and entertaini­ng. Connected by a breakfast bar is a full-size kitchen, beautifull­y appointed with underbench oven, dishdrawer­s, pantry and sleek white cabinetry, and offering impressive counter space for keen cooks. A large window fills the room with natural light, while offering a park vista to make light work of washing up!

Two double bedrooms are equally light and inviting, and both include built-in wardrobes. They share a tiled bathroom with wall-hung vanity and heated towelrail, finished in a handsome palette of neutral tones. A single internal-access garage (carpeted) with auto-door opener adds security and convenienc­e, with direct access from the laundry in the garage to the rear garden.

Quality finishes and fittings inside the home are complement­ed by superb, sun-drenched outdoor living in your own private garden. Just the right size for low-maintenanc­e enjoyment, and beautifull­y landscaped with decking, paths, lawn and neat-and-tidy plantings, this is a wonderfull­y inviting space further enhanced by the borrowed landscape of the park beyond.

Fully fenced and surrounded by other quality homes in a popular neighbourh­ood, with the added peace of mind of a security system, this is a haven for relaxed living. All the amenities of The Palms are a short drive away and the pools, spa and sauna of Taiora QEII Recreation and Sport Centre are just down the road. Whether entertaini­ng friends or relaxing with family, these brand-new homes elevate over-60s living to a lifestyle that’s hard to beat, with quality constructi­on and thoughtful design. Just three of these units are available, so act fast to secure yours now.
