Be captivated at first sight by this designer home on 1.59 hectares (more or less) of land with expansive views of the Waiwhakaiho River. Don’t be fooled by the New Plymouth city address as this exceptional 540sqm, five-bedroom residence offers an immersive country ambience and award-winning design.

Leave the city behind as you wind down the bush-edged drive to this tranquil retreat, framed by established trees and lush pasture.
The impressive architectural detailing begins with a dramatic glass-gabled entrance, an eye-catching split-level foyer, and a graceful curving stairwell leading to four upstairs bedrooms, each enjoying elevated rural and river outlooks.

Designed for connection and comfort, the home's generous social spaces include a stunning light-filled living area with an adjoining breakfast nook, a sleek black granite kitchen, a formal dining area, and a step-down lounge. Glide outdoors to follow the sun's journey across two connected decks, perfectly positioned for morning coffee or evening relaxation amidst the peaceful bush backdrop. Downstairs, the expansive master suite includes a tiled ensuite and oversized dressing room, with bifold doors opening to a landscaped patio and outdoor fireplace - an area also accessible from the main living area.

For those seeking space and versatility, the property features two internal-access double garages, an additional utility room ideal as a home gym or studio, and a separate triple-bay shed offering extensive storage and workspace options.

Birdsong from tui and kereru fills the air, completing this private river-view haven. Despite its rural tranquility, Merrilands Shopping Centre is just 1.6km away, offering the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience.
