This supremely presented property delivers every aspect one would expect for ‘Living Life Large’, where finding a generous land holding with residence to match has become the exception rather than the rule in more recent times, especially within the city limits. The prospect for owning this extraordinary estate will attract families in the first instance, prudent next home buyers, investors, developers and those who simply appreciate a relaxed spacious environment amongst quality homes, in this premium neighbourhood of Regents Park.
The grounds weighing in at 4317.m² deserve first mention, a vast parkland that will hold your attention on arrival for some time. A substantial parcel of land that offers opportunities in spades to a decerning buyer with an eye for unrealised possibilities.
The dwelling is a sublime demonstration of a home designed for modern living at every turn, strategically placed on this lot with an uncluttered northly aspect and a focus on maximising the tangible ambience of space, that progresses intuitively from inside to out. A well oriented, fully appointed kitchen of restaurant capacity starts the party, wrapping around a centrally positioned island that keeps the chef included with the crowd. Immediate serviceability for catering to the dining and sitting quarter, that further transitions to a family/lounge adjoining this area, with a generous formal split-level ‘Grand Salon’ through French doors that simply takes these gathering spaces to the next level.
Continuing on, a selection of spectacular outdoor settings that follow the sun. A sheltered alfresco dell surrounded by well-established perimeter planting, raised garden plots and lush lawns from a quiet corner to ‘sports field’ proportion. Unlimited options for creating a private atmosphere fit for family, friends, guests or large social occasions from close quarters to Function Centre scale, without compromise.
Four bedrooms with one located straight off the main entrance, ideal for a study or office should working from home be a requirement. However, further accommodation if needed is provide by an auxiliary room as a fifth sleeping pad or utilised as a hobby/media room. Walk-in robe off the master with an ensuite of Waldorf quality and size, fully tiled, glass double shower enclosure and bath. Functional family bathroom plus separate (3RD) w.c, separate laundry.
Heating is by way of a heat pump, double glazing, full insulation, under tile heating in wet areas and direct thermal gain from all day sun and light. Oversized double garage offering workshop areas and abundant storage space. Extensive sealed off street parking for occupants or guests within immediate access to the abode, plus a secondary gravelled expanse for secure parking of a boat, caravan, motorhome, trailer or several of each. The third phase of these grounds is realised from crossing a bridge at the southernmost boundary, that tracks to the north-westerly corner. A tranquil viewing point where the full magnitude of this property is appreciated, a majestic domain of flowing lawn, native planting and walkways along the banks of the stream that takes you back to the beginning.
Proximity to parks and Styx Reserves, Redwood local specialty shops, Papanui/Northwood shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and supermarket-malls. Zoned schools with public transport at your doorstep.
I cannot express what a privilege it would be to own this property, a ‘once in a lifetime’ opportunity without doubt. Please call for further information or to make a time to view at your earliest convenience.
