This immaculate property, designed by Patterson Co-Partners Architects, truly is a slice of Tuscan charm located in prime position on the estuary at the ever-popular Whananaki North. The generous flat site is beautifully laid out with the house taking pride of centre; the matching double garage complete with bathroom, water treatment plant, storage and loft/pool room off to the side; and boat shed at the rear. The entire property has been lovingly landscaped and maintained to the highest standard. The horseshoe shingle driveway features attractive matching heavy timber and iron rolling gates and fence which create a stunning entrance. The earthy Tuscan tones of the house and garage blend in tastefully with the surrounding greenery. The manicured gardens feature a large thoughtfully arranged rock collection sourced from a local farm. The front door is flanked by tall Italian Cypress trees and Dracaenas which form a striking canopy. The welcoming lobby with coloured concrete floor leads to a carpeted staircase to the substantial first floor master bedroom, complete with en-suite, walk-through wardrobe and an office with its own deck looking out to the striking tall archways of the north atrium.
