This striking architectural masterpiece offers refined coastal living just moments from the beach, positioned on one of the area’s most sought-after streets. Spanning three immaculate levels, the 313sqm (more or less) weatherboard home, built in 2005, combines generous proportions with light-filled interiors, delivering expansive entertaining zones and restful retreats perfectly suited to families of all ages.
A bold statement front door opens to a welcoming foyer, where stairs lead to an airy entry landing and the main living level, setting a grand yet minimalistic tone. The open-plan living, dining, and family areas are enhanced by brand-new luxury carpet, tasteful tiling, full-length bifold doors, and striking designer lighting—creating a calm, sophisticated atmosphere. Bifold doors flow seamlessly to a spacious all-weather deck, while a paved front patio extends the living space outdoors.
Designed for entertainers, the gourmet kitchen features premium Bosch appliances, including twin ovens and a gas hob, complemented by a generous pantry for additional preparation and storage. The home’s five bedrooms—two with ensuites—are thoughtfully configured: three bedrooms and a family bathroom on the lower level, with the main suite and an additional ensuite bedroom on the top floor. The master retreat includes a walk-in wardrobe and sleek ensuite, while the adjacent ensuite bedroom offers versatility for family or guests. An additional upstairs landing provides a flexible workspace for remote work or study. All bathrooms showcase a monochromatic palette with quality tiling, chrome tapware, stylish vanities, and underfloor heating.
The main living area is substantial, featuring a gas fireplace, bifold doors, and a theatre-style layout perfect for large-screen entertainment, with the kitchen and dining positioned nearby for effortless hosting. Downstairs, a second living area provides generous open-plan space that connects seamlessly to the bedroom wing and a well-equipped bathroom.
Easy internal access to the double garage and ample off-street parking enhances practicality. Fully fenced and gated with landscaped, low-maintenance grounds, the property offers both comfort and security. Its sunny, north-facing aspect ensures year-round warmth, supported by a heat pump, gas fire, and heated bathroom floors. A separate laundry adds further convenience.
Zoned for Selwyn College and just a short stroll to Eastridge Shopping Centre, this premium residence also provides excellent access to supermarkets, cafés, shops, public transport, and swift CBD commuting options.
