There's something rather appealing about a home that gives everyone room to do their own thing without sacrificing the spaces that bring a family together.

Set on a generous 700sqm (more or less) freehold section, 3 Parlane Drive is a substantial single-level brick home designed around the realities of busy family life. With five bedrooms or four plus an office or single bedroom, two generous living areas and a wonderfully spacious backyard, there's room here for everyone, and just about everything.

At the heart of the home, the open-plan kitchen, dining and family living area provides a natural gathering place. The contemporary kitchen features an island breakfast bar, gas cooking and plenty of bench space, with doors connecting the living area with the garden.

The generously proportioned formal lounge offers something increasingly valuable in a family home, somewhere else to go. Whether it's a quiet evening away from the children playing in the yard,, a dedicated space for movie nights, or simply the freedom to entertain without everyone being underfoot, the flexibility is a genuine advantage. This room also enjoys its own side access to the garden.

Five bedrooms provide plenty of accommodation, with options for guests, working from home or a growing family. Two bathrooms including en suite help keep busy mornings manageable, while two heat pumps and mains gas hot water take care of the practicalities.

Outside, the large, level lawn is an increasingly desirable find. There's ample space for children to play, a trampoline, backyard cricket or simply enjoying the outdoors, with established fencing providing a defined and private garden setting.

Well proportioned, comfortably appointed and sitting on a section that gives the whole family room to spread out, this is a home with the space and versatility to serve you well for years to come.

Zoned for Matua Ngaru School, and within walking distance of the sprawling Huapai Domain this home is family-friendly, easy-care and has a gentle welcoming disposition. Singing out for someone that loves landscaping, the back garden offers a blank canvas of emerald lawn, and the outlook from the large picture windows is to the Riverhead Forest.

A short drive to Muriwai, the boutique vineyards that dot the area and the gorgeous forest walking trails, this neatly kept much-loved home is ready to welcome your family.
