Step in from the quiet street into a bright sun room that’s both welcoming and practical. A handy cupboard keeps coats and shoes out of sight, while the space offers a relaxed spot to unwind. Sheer curtains filter the light, and wooden floors add warmth and durability. Sliding doors connect to the living area, providing privacy or easy flow as you choose.

Light fills the living area, highlighting stunning mataī floors and sleek modern features like a recessed TV alcove and heat pump radiator heating. Large windows dressed with sheer curtains soften the sunlight, creating a warm, airy feel. Internal doors offer flexibility to close off the space. Comfortable and spacious, it’s ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.

The dining area flows seamlessly from the kitchen, featuring a stunning integrated table crafted from matching Dekton for a sleek, cohesive look. Warm wooden floors add character, while French doors open onto the deck, creating a connected indoor-outdoor space that’s perfect for entertaining and easy everyday living.

This Mastercraft designer kitchen is stunning, blending timeless style with high-end function. Corten tile walls and a Dekton bench top add bold texture and durability, hot pans can go straight on. A refined colour palette, quality European appliances (built-in oven, cook top with integrated ventilation, and dishwasher), and generous storage make it both beautiful and practical. A custom bench links to the dining space, and French doors open to the louvre room and deck, perfect for hosting.

1. The master bedroom is a generous, comfortable space at the front of the home, away from the living areas. Plush wool carpet and soft sheers and curtains add warmth and style. A spacious walk-in wardrobe and an additional built-in cupboard provide excellent storage, while the adjacent high-end bathroom is thoughtfully designed to connect smoothly with the bedroom for easy daily living. The East-facing windows greet the morning sun and thoughtful additions like a heated towel rail in the wardrobe give you the option to warm your smalls for ultimate comfort in the colder months.

2. The second bedroom has soft wool carpet and catches the perfect afternoon light—ideal for reading or relaxing. Whether as a bedroom, guest room, or study, it’s a bright, welcoming space that fits seamlessly into this beautiful home.

1. This bathroom surprises with beautiful designer touches, fully tiled walls and floors, underfloor heating, and vertical heated towel rails for added comfort. Brushed copper fittings and twin sinks add both style and functionality, while the separate toilet enhances convenience. High-end finishes and thoughtful details make this space feel considered, luxurious, and built to last.

2. The separate toilet is surprisingly spacious and finished to the same high standard as the rest of the home. Fully tiled with underfloor heating, it includes a sink and a feature-rich toilet with a heated seat, built-in extractor fan, and self-closing function. Every detail has been considered, combining comfort, practicality, and sleek design in this often-overlooked space.

Located in the hallway, the laundry cupboard is both generous and functional. The washer and dryer are set at an easy height, with practical storage above and below. Bifold doors slide away while in use and close everything off when you're done, another thoughtful detail that makes day-to-day living feel seamless.

The front entrance is framed by magnolia and flowering cherry trees, creating a simple, stylish welcome with a clean tiled path leading to the door. There is a parking area that accommodates two vehicles, just a few steps to your front gate.

The fully fenced backyard and secure deck open to a generous entertainer’s space with a louvre system and automatic blinds, offering a flexible outdoor room perfect for any weather. An established rhododendron tree in the yard adds a lovely touch without shading the sunny lawn, ideal for relaxing or spending time with friends and family. An outdoor fireplace creates a cozy atmosphere on cooler evenings. Raised vegetable beds and a large garden shed with room for a workbench complete this practical and inviting outdoor area, perfectly balanced for both everyday living and entertaining.

Convenient parking space for two vehicles right outside plus additional street parking, making access easy for you and your guests.
