Tucked off the road behind electric gates, relax and unwind as you come home to 1518 Old North Road. An eight-year new GJ Gardener home built from solid brick construction sitting on an easily manageable one-hectare parcel of land - you have found absolute heaven. The cherry on top of this property is the six-bay shed with a hoist and adjoining office/studio space for your ultimate work-from-home solution. The home is 264 m2 (319 m2 including the covered veranda) and has a very well-thought-out floor plan.This home was designed and built for comfortable living. The layout has also been cleverly configured to make the most of the extensive views over farmland and out to Rangitoto and the Sky Tower - even the top of the Coromandel and Barrier Island are visible on a good day! Made up of four double bedrooms, the main bedroom has stunning views, access to the covered veranda, a large walk-in wardrobe, and a fabulous ensuite featuring a double shower and two separate W/C's and vanities.The living is open-plan and made for entertaining. It flows beautifully to the covered outdoor living and the flat lawn. The kitchen is modern with quality appliances, gas cooking, and one of the biggest butlers pantries I have seen. Outside we have the 185 m2 shed which can easily house six cars. There is the potential to add a mezzanine if the car enthusiast fancies even more storage.The office or studio space has access through the shed so this can be utilized in countless ways. Somewhere to work from home, more workshop space, storage, rumpus, teenage retreat, adult retreat, or a very comfortable place to house extended family (it is double-glazed, well insulated, and has a shower and W/C). Included in the chattels is a high-tech security system including alarms in the house and shed and security cameras.The property is a parklike one hectare which is currently kept mowed, however, there is plenty of room for sheep, alpacas or extensive gardens if you so wish. Properties that are the whole package like this one do not come up often, get in touch with Nicole for a private viewing.
