Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac and surrounded by other quality properties, this impressive Matangi home offers space, privacy and flexibility in a location popular with families. Set across 8,125sqm (more or less) of established grounds, with an impressive 331sqm (more or less) of home and attached studio, there is plenty of room here for family life to unfold.
Solidly constructed with plaster over brick, with touches of Stutex stone (schist). The driveway curves in through the post-and-rail entrance, leading you to the covered portico and generous foyer. Once inside, the height and openness of the entrance give you the first glimpse of the space that continues throughout the home.
At the heart of the home is the spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. The entertainer’s kitchen features a large freestanding cooker and a walk-through scullery and pantry with an additional sink – perfect when family and friends come together.
Large sliding doors open the living area out to the covered entertaining space, creating easy indoor-outdoor flow. Enjoy long lunches, fire up the pizza oven or simply relax overlooking the gardens.
There is plenty of room for family life inside too. A separate soundproofed home theatre is ideal for movie nights or a place for the kids to hang out. Two generous double bedrooms share the family bathroom, while the master is privately positioned at the end of the home with an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and peaceful outlook. Double glazing and central heating keep the home warm and comfortable through the seasons. Solar panels are another practical bonus.
Adding another dimension is the attached self-contained one-bedroom studio with its own kitchenette, bathroom and separate entrance. Ideal for extended family, elderly parents, guests or Airbnb-style accommodation, with the option to reinstate internal access from the garage if desired.
Outside, mature trees, fruit trees, hedging, vegetable gardens and a potting lean-to create an established setting with plenty of room to enjoy. There is also space to explore the potential for a second dwelling or extending the studio (subject to council approval & buyer due diligence).
Matangi offers that sought-after country feel while remaining an easy commute to Hamilton and the expressway, with nearby pathways connecting towards Matangi and Hillcrest. Zoned for Matangi School, Berkley Normal Middle School and Hillcrest High School.
