Leaving has not been an easy decision. The current owners have loved living here; however, the pull of country living and the desire to be closer to their business has prompted a return to acreage, creating an opportunity for a fortunate new owner to secure one of Anselmi Ridge's standout residences.
Positioned within the exclusive Anselmi Ridge enclave, this exceptional “Haven” Built residence showcases quality, style, and privacy at every turn. Featuring striking architectural elements and an intuitive floorplan, this contemporary home combines modern luxury with everyday practicality.
Set on a beautifully landscaped 651sqm section and spanning approximately 215sqm, this home has been crafted for both style and functionality. The open-plan living zone is an impressive space, where soaring cathedral ceilings, polished concrete floors, and abundant natural light combine to create an impressive sense of scale. A beautifully appointed kitchen with quality appliances and a generous walk-in pantry anchors the space, while large stacking sliders connect effortlessly to the deck & lawn area.
A standout is the separate media room, often referred to as the "whiskey lounge". Complete with extensive built-in cabinetry and storage, this versatile space opens to outdoor living areas on both sides. One side extends beneath the striking cantilevered upper level, a distinctive architectural feature that creates a sheltered outdoor living space, while the other connects to a covered entertaining area complete with a glazed roof and outdoor blind. From here, the entertaining spaces flow naturally to the bespoke firepit and seating area, creating the perfect setting for long summer evenings and relaxed gatherings with family and friends. a place where countless evenings have been spent sharing drinks, conversation, and time with friends long after the sun goes down.
Accommodation is equally impressive, with four bedrooms including a luxurious master retreat occupying the entire upper level. Completely separated from the rest of the home, this private sanctuary features beautiful plantation shutters, elevated views across parts of Pukekohe, the reserve, and its picturesque native-planted water feature, with the popular Anselmi Ridge walking path winding around its edge. A walk-in-robe, and an elegant ensuite. It is the perfect place to escape, unwind, and enjoy a level of peace and separation rarely found in modern family homes.
Year-round comfort is assured with double glazing throughout, a ducted heating and cooling system, and additional heat pumps in both the master suite and media lounge. Double internal-access garaging with attic storage, quality fixtures and finishes, and beautifully established easy-care grounds further enhance the appeal, while its lock-and-leave design provides peace of mind for those who love to travel.
Located within the highly sought-after Valley School zone and only moments from Pukekohe's thriving town centre, this property strikes an exceptional balance between lifestyle and convenience. The recently reinstated electric train service provides an attractive commuting option to Auckland, while motorway access is just 6km away, making travel north and south remarkably easy.
With plans already in place for their next move, the sellers are committed to achieving a result, making this an opportunity not to be missed
