Built in pre-cast concrete construction, this substantial home is both unique and captivating with a high level of bespoke detail. The clever flexibility of design means it can be configured in several ways to suit specific family needs - whether that is as a five bedroom home, a four bedroom home with a self-contained one bedroom apartment, or a three bedroom home with a self-contained two bedroom apartment. Viewing is important to truly appreciate this dynamic layout.
On entry, generous proportions are evident as you enter a contemporary space with lofty wooden ceilings and a sweeping feature staircase with exposed concrete curves. This space while open-plan, is cleverly divided into a lounge area with a concrete divider wall separating off a cosy dining/living with woodburner, flowing on through into the kitchen.
Wall to wall views out over the valley and beyond are spectacular and taken advantage of from the large deck areas flowing from both central living spaces. On the upper level, the master retreat has a wonderful outlook as well with another deck off the bedroom. A large walk-in wardrobe along with a luxurious en-suite with floating timber bench, an oversized basin and a wet room style shower all add to the sense of contemporary luxury here.
Downstairs there is a rumpus/second living complete with built-in gymnasium. This area is child heaven with the bedrooms opening out from this space and sliding doors onto another substantial deck and the hill garden beyond, full of citrus, stonefruit and natives from Kauri to Totara and Rimu. The self-contained apartment is also found at this lower level and offers up wonderful flexibility to this home.
Underfloor heating in the floor slabs, double integral garaging, oodles of storage space and plenty of off-street parking are just a few more of the fabulous features found here.
