This understated elegant home was designed by Architectural Designer Sean McCurrie in 2014, taking inspiration from the 1960s 'Christchurch Modern'. The vibe here is mid-century. The mostly single level house is set around a pool and splendid garden where you could be forgiven for thinking you were stepping into a 1970s Slim Aarons photograph, poolside, at a luxury Palm Springs Resort! Entirely north facing, on a rear site of 2223sqm, this is a private beautifully established sanctuary, ready and waiting for a fortunate new family.
Garden surrounds the house on all sides, now so well bedded in, only simple maintenance is required. There is a verdant outlook from every window, north and south. Borders of Magnolia, Rhododendron, Hydrangea, trimmed topiary, and exotic Palms form 'rooms' dividing areas for play. A Cedar 'Fort', partly camouflaged amid trees and shrubs, promises hours of fun for young ones. Tall Conifers stand guard to the south where raised beds for herbs and veges nestle among ferns nodding at the windows. Outdoor living orients around the pool, mosaic tiles sparkling, where vast sliders bring the indoors out. A Spa pool, outdoor shower, changing room and WC make entertaining teenagers a breeze.
Inside, the architectural style continues but very firmly in the 21st Century. John Creighton Builders won a Gold Award for this impeccable construction. Beamed ceilings are white painted and timber detailing offsets a classic white interior. Skylights flood spaces with light, high electric windows allow fresh air, and radiators warm every room in Winter. Four living rooms are a luxury. Three open to the north and the fourth is separate, an ideal media space. A bedroom wing houses five bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of which are ensuites. Kitchen and scullery may be minimalist in appearance but are equipped to please. A waterfall island bench cleverly hides two radiators, two light wells face the sky, and the outlook behind is lush and green. A few steps up lead to an unexpected extra above the double garage. Here a large space could be a studio, office, teenage retreat, or rumpus room. Electric gates keep your private paradise secure and there is plenty of parking for extra vehicles.
Our sellers have loved their time here. This is the second house they have owned in the street, but they have purchased another, not far away, with even more space for their growing family. We believe this is a rare opportunity for a buyer who wants a contemporary home with a classic form in a magnificent setting. Come and see if that sounds like you!
