Positioned at the end of a family-friendly cul-de-sac in ever-popular Flagstaff, 22 Santiago Place is a low-maintenance brick and linea home that genuinely delivers on lifestyle. Set on a fully fenced 794sqm family section and spanning 203sqm, this well-proportioned four-bedroom home has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the sun, the space and the natural setting that backs directly onto the Te Awa O Katapaki Esplanade.
The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the social heart of the home, oriented to capture generous sun throughout the day. Ranch sliders open directly to a paved outdoor entertaining area, creating a seamless connection between inside and out that suits everything from weekday dinners to weekend gatherings. A second, separate living area adds valuable flexibility, whether as a media lounge, playroom or quiet retreat away from the main living zone.
At the far end of the backyard, a freestanding deck with a built-in table sits right on the gully edge, perfectly positioned to take in the peaceful outlook over the Te Awa O Katapaki Esplanade. It is a spot that invites you to slow down, with a natural green backdrop that provides privacy, birdsong and a sense of space that is increasingly hard to find in suburban Hamilton. The esplanade walkway and playground are just a couple of minutes on foot from the back of the section, making this a genuine find for families.
Four well-sized bedrooms are complemented by two bathrooms and a separate toilet. The master bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and its own heat pump for personalised comfort. A gas heater keeps the rest of the home warm and efficient through the cooler months. The double internal-access garage rounds out the practical credentials, providing secure parking and additional storage.
Brick and linea construction means the exterior is as easy to care for as it is tidy on the street. The fully fenced section is well suited to young children and pets, with plenty of room to spread out across the 794sqm site.
The location is hard to fault. Te Ao Marama School is less than a kilometre away on foot, and the property is zoned for both Rototuna Junior and Senior High Schools, making this an address that works from first day of school right through to Year 13. The Te Awa O Katapaki Reserve provides a lovely walking and cycling track along the stream corridor, and the wider Flagstaff network connects through to the Waikato River walkways via the Pukete pedestrian bridge.
Sun-soaked, gully-backed and ready to enjoy, this is Flagstaff family living at its best.
