Prepare to be captivated by the perfect fusion of history and modern living. Originally conceived in 1969 by its architect owner, this classic cedar and masonry home in mid-century modern style has been lovingly and completely modernized by its new custodians, preserving its inspired design while elevating it to today's practical family lifestyle. The committed vendor wants a sale before moving into their new home.
Located in a quiet, Double Grammar zoned cul-de-sac, this stunning five bedroom family residence sits proudly in a private garden setting with a stunning pool amongst native planting and flat lawn for the kids.
This is an iconic piece of architectural history, beautifully built to last, now completely re-energized for today's living. The dynamic floor plan, originally influenced by the mid-century design principles of its era, now showcases a seamless blend of old-world charm and new-world perfection.
Fabulous island kitchen: the original kitchen/family room has been transformed into a designer, bespoke space ready for your inner chef, opening perfectly to both the sun-drenched pool and tranquil greenery.
Preserved charm: the warmth of the original timber-lined interior, concrete block and superb ambiance have been meticulously preserved and enhanced with new finishes and lighting.
Flexible living: the home boasts a separate formal lounge with its original open fire and huge windows to lush greenery. The layout offers supreme flexibility, featuring three bedrooms upstairs, plus two bedrooms (one of which can be self-contained) downstairs flanking a dedicated third living/media space - providing ideal separation for growing or extended families.
The dedicated passion of the original architect-owner has been matched by the current owners' commitment to quality and design, with input from leading New Zealand architects. This home is now a sanctuary - a piece of architectural history masterfully renovated and awaiting its next family.
Don't miss the chance to own this remarkable, fully modernized classic.
