This stunning residence offers beautiful rural views, outstanding indoor-outdoor flow, and proximity to Kerikeri, Waipapa and the Bay beyond. With generous proportions and stylish upgrades, and designed with both family life and entertaining in mind, expansive living areas and link seamlessly with wrap-around decking, landscaped gardens and the river boundary beyond. At one end, the library is separated from the main lounge by French Doors, with concertinaed windows for those summer breezes as you relax with your favourite book in the sun. Heading back through the lounge, the open-plan kitchen has an island and sliding windows that provide casual dining options and a connection to a stunning internal courtyard. Here, the Mediterranean vibes truly kick in! Sheltered and sunny, the water feature, tiles and outdoor fireplace here will take your breath away, providing the perfect spot for alfresco dining. Heading back inside, there are three large bedrooms - including a master with ensuite and walk-in robe - an office, separate laundry, double internal-access garage, and a boot room with its own toilet. Upstairs, there is an additional fitness/hobby room or studio. An interior repaint has given the home a fresh, modern feel, with polished timber flooring, and fresh carpet throughout the lower level for added warmth and comfort. Other notable features include a recently painted roof, a cosy wood burner, new glass balustrades on the deck (providing uninterrupted views towards Puketotara stream below), a 14 panel solar system and generator and a energy-efficient Reverse-cycle hot water system. Stepping down off the deck, tidy paths meander past nikau palms and other natives, the potager garden and a glasshouse beyond. There is plenty here for gardeners and bird lovers, with space for kids and pets to play!
Just minutes to Waipapa and Kerikeri, and zoned for quality schools, this is a rare combination of comfort, class and natural beauty.
