A Home Made For Living
Beautifully renovated with family life in mind, this warm and welcoming home is one where the little details genuinely make a difference.
Rather than a stark, quick renovation, it has a relaxed coastal vibe, with creamy, calming interiors, natural rattan and rope lighting, warm tones and the original archway adding character.
The kitchen and separate scullery are the heart of the home. A large waterfall-edge travertine benchtop, six deep heavy-duty drawers, induction cooktop, built-in oven and dishwasher make everyday cooking easy, while pull-out spice and oil storage and a rotating corner cupboard add clever functionality.
The fridge, pantry and appliance storage are tucked away in the scullery, leaving the main kitchen focused on cooking, gathering and entertaining.
Year-round comfort is well covered. The living room has a fully functioning fireplace, heat pump, warm dimmable lighting, custom sheers and thermal blackout curtains. There's also brand-new underfloor and ceiling insulation, HRV, a heat-transfer system from the fireplace, newer double glazing and high-UV insulating window tint.
The master has its own heat pump, USB charging and double power sockets on both sides of the bed, individual bedside pendants, a new wardrobe system and even a laundry chute straight down to the laundry. The additional bedrooms offer flexibility for children, guests, a nursery or working from home, with new wardrobe systems and good storage throughout.
The family bathroom features a tiled shower-over-bath with travertine surround, double vanity, backlit demisting mirror and heated towel rail, with a separate toilet and extraction fan adding extra convenience.
When you step outside, this is where the home really comes into its own. The large deck, built-in seating and high pergola with festoon lighting create a wonderful outdoor living space, surrounded by a private, established garden filled with lush subtropical planting, palms and agaves.
The native birdlife is something special too. Tūī, kererū, fantails, ducks and rainbow parrots are all part of daily life.
Then there's the edible garden. Established plum, grapefruit, lime, mandarin, kaffir lime, banana, lemon and avocado grow alongside seasonal vegetables and herbs, all pesticide-free. It's a lovely place for children to see where food comes from and pick something straight from the garden.
For families, there's a purpose-built treehouse-style playground with two swings, a slide, climbing wall and steering wheel. The covered deck directly off the lounge also provides a sheltered place to play when the weather doesn't cooperate.
Just imagine sitting on the couch with a coffee while the kids happily play outside.
Underneath the home, the renovated laundry sits within a large workshop and working area, providing valuable space for storage, hobbies and projects.
The fully enclosed carport, with its natural timber sliding barn door and brass seahorse handle brought home from Bali, adds one more little touch of personality.
As the owners put it:
"More than anything, we've tried to create a home that is beautiful without being precious. It's warm, comfortable, practical and genuinely easy to live in as a family."
And that really sums it up.
So, if you're a couple without kids or a family looking for their next home, this one is for you.
