Contemporary, quietly sophisticated and elevated within the tightly held community of Opoho, this exceptional Gary Todd-designed home is a beautiful expression of considered architecture, exceptional space and effortless family living.

Commanding its elevated position, the home has been thoughtfully designed to embrace its surroundings, with generous glazing drawing in natural light and capturing the outlook from almost every angle. The clever orientation allows sunshine to pour into the kitchen, dining and living spaces throughout the day.

At the heart of the home, the beautifully appointed kitchen is both refined and inviting - a space designed as much for everyday family life as it is for entertaining. Its natural connection with the dining and living areas creates an effortless flow, extending outdoors to an exceptional deck where the home's elevated position can truly be appreciated. Framed by glass balustrades, the deck captures the very last of the day's sunshine, creating an idyllic setting for evening dining, a quiet glass of wine or simply taking a moment to pause and enjoy the outlook. It is an extension of the living space that feels wonderfully private and connected to the established gardens beyond.

Accommodation is equally impressive, with four beautiful bedrooms providing plenty of flexibility for family, guests or working from home. The master suite is a peaceful retreat, complete with a generous walk-in wardrobe and beautifully appointed ensuite, while the remaining bedrooms are thoughtfully serviced by a family bathroom and an additional bathroom conveniently positioned to serve the two upper-level bedrooms.

Underfloor heating in the bathrooms adds another layer of comfort and luxury, while a separate laundry ensures the home remains as practical and functional as it is beautiful.

There is a wonderful sense of space throughout, with the architecture creating distinct areas for living, relaxing and entertaining while maintaining an easy connection between them. Large windows frame the changing outlook, bringing the surrounding greenery, sky and light into the home and creating a sense of calm that is immediately apparent.

Outside, the established gardens are beautifully landscaped and wonderfully private, creating a peaceful sanctuary around the home. The elevated setting, generous outdoor spaces and Opoho's well-known microclimate make this a particularly special place to enjoy life outdoors.

A double garage with internal access adds further convenience.

The home's distinctive architecture is softened beautifully by its mature gardens and landscaping, creating a home that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. Impressive without being imposing, contemporary without sacrificing warmth, it has been cleverly designed around the way a home is actually lived in.

This is a property with presence - where architecture, light, landscape and lifestyle come together beautifully.

Positioned in one of Opoho's most sought-after pockets and just a five-minute walk from the beautiful Botanical Gardens, 26 Evans Street offers a level of design, individuality and lifestyle rarely found.
