This superb property situated down a long driveway at the end of an exclusive cul de sac lane has cinematic vistas across the region to the Wairoa River in the valley below. Originally designed by the talented team at Ambienti, a recent and very extensive renovation has taken things a stellar next level in terms of features and inclusions.

Three sides of the home face a centrally integrated concrete swimming pool and alfresco zones while exposed steel beams, polished concrete flooring and honed block walls convey industrial chic. Raked ceilings and a central void enhance natural light and ventilation throughout with abundant glazing comprising fully stacking sliders, clerestory, and floor to ceiling windows framing the pastoral green-scape to perfection. The fusion of open plan with separate places for quiet down time enhances a diverse split-level layout. Scope to entertain has been prioritised with piped gas for the BBQ and mammoth, almost commercial grade kitchen comprising colossal island and freestanding SMEG oven with gas hob. A convivial dining dais nearby is elevated above the sitting room with log burner and a lofty mezzanine office has a distracting outlook. Several areas including media concourse merge the indoors with open air decks and pool while the spa nook beyond is an intimate escape in the evenings. Top floor adult’s domain with wool carpet includes a master bedroom incorporating walk in robe and tiled ensuite with wet shower and dual vessel basins. Family bathroom with freestanding bath, a guest powder room and custom laundry efficiently caters to any busy household.

With double internal access garage, freestanding boat storage and woodshed there’s plenty of forecourt parking at the door of this unique rural fringe residence nestled on a 5195 sqm (approx.) landscaped estate. Moments from Bethlehem and Tauranga Crossing all the essentials a discerning family could desire are found in under 15km from the CBD.
