This private sanctuary is just a stone's throw away from the bustling Albany and Coatesville villages and is the perfect blend of tranquillity and convenience. Sun, birdsong, sprawling wide decks overlooking Kauri trees and spectacular native bush, covenanted to protect your private surroundings.
High ceilings, large windows and architectural features will allow you to enjoy being a part of the natural environment while being cocooned in this delightful home. The house has three bedrooms plus an office, large open plan living and separate dining and a cosy 'snug' with its own fireplace ... "a gorgeous retreat during summer or winter months". A new kitchen is a vibrant hub of the home overlooking the Tui's feeding station where sun streams into the breakfast bar beautifully and the current owners enjoy their morning coffee. The internal chimney, a striking piece of art and a substantial feature that anchors the home, is a testament to the unique architectural elements of this property. Crafted from recycled bricks, it provides a wonderful ambience from every angle.
The master suite has its own large ensuite with a claw-foot bath and led windows that flow outdoors to the deck. Two further bedrooms share a separate powder room and shower room that separates the bedrooms and is accessible from either side. The fourth bedroom, also ensuited, is located slightly separately along a boardwalk, currently serving as a guest accommodation. This versatile space could be ideal for extended family or older children to enjoy their own space.
The office, located upstairs from the snug, is a perfect retreat to focus on work or relax away from everyone. The property also features a separate laundry and triple-car garaging, catering for plenty of storage. The gorgeous pathways allow you to explore your own property, leading to a viewing deck and potting shed with vege plots. This could also be a great art studio or retreat away from the main home, overlooking the native bush, inspiring a range of creative uses for the space.
There is a brilliant shed that has also previously been set up as an additional sleepout and office separate from the home. This versatile space could be used for additional work from home, as a wonderful art studio, or as a 'man cave' if desired. This property certainly gets the creative juices flowing and quite simply makes you smile. It is a hidden sanctuary close to the city - the current owners have enjoyed it from day one when they created this special environment and will miss the tranquillity and sense of peace here, however, it is time to pass the baton to the next family to enjoy...viewing is by appointment, phone Nicky White on 021 754 667 for further information.
