Brought to you by Waikato’s award-winning Downey Designer Homes this picture-perfect country home leaves you feeling like you’ve hit your life goals with its expansive, private rural outlook and outdoor entertaining spaces that follow the sun.
The quintessential lifestyle starter package, it’s just nine minutes from Cambridge, close to Hamilton, and offers all the hallmarks of ‘The Good Life’ for families with its own orchard, room for a large pool and a stylish, contemporary linea exterior.
Chefs will delight in the home’s kitchen with stone benchtop and brand new freestanding oven that overlook the family room with its high stud, and gas fire. The dining room is at the heart of it all. The butler’s pantry with sink and great storage will be the envy of all your friends, as will the large bifold and stacker doors off the kitchen, dining and living that do a great job of bringing the outside in.
Chase the rays all day long and choose which deck you entertain on, clinking glasses with your guests as the children play in the covered sandpit at the bottom of the garden. Enjoy relaxing under the giant shade sail beside a gorgeous schist outdoor fireplace that’ll have the pizza chef working overtime.
When the kids need wind-down time after tending to their sheep or ponies, migrate inside and close off the designer barn door that leads to the formal lounge. Wide hallways are a real feature in this home, with its large linen cupboard, family bathroom, separate toilet and four generous bedrooms. Slip out from the master suite through your own slider doors onto the deck where an outdoor plug invites you to install a spa and enjoy nights under the stars. The master bedroom’s large walk-in wardrobe plus ensuite with heated floors, is also bound to delight.
Those with toys have the option of a 64sqm (more or less) double door shed near the property’s entrance. A water tank services the shed and stock in your two paddocks, with two more tanks collecting rainwater for the home. This is one neatly put together, low maintenance 1 hectare block. An easy 14km to the expressway near Hamilton, and even closer to amenities in Cambridge, this one won’t last!
