Lifestyle living at its best and without the rural address, a property that makes a statement and leaves a lasting impression. At only four years old, the current owners have committed to plans elsewhere and it's time to move on.Big, bold and beautiful, perched up on the hill overlooking the Weiti River, in a unique setting, not just to the Hibiscus Coast, but to all of Auckland. On approximately 1.6 acres of land, leading down to the Weiti River, there's plenty of room for gardens, an orchard and self-sustainability.Innovatively designed with an industrial, barn look inside and out; all completely in keeping with the setting. Built to maximise sunlight, the view, indoor / outdoor flow and modern family life.The main home consists of four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, with the option to convert the huge attic storage area into extra living if the need arose. In addition to the main house, there's a separate, self-contained granny flat which is currently occupied by a happy tenant.The living area is the focal point of the home, with an enormous galley-style kitchen plus scullery, all open to the living / dining and entertaining areas. Towering vaulted ceilings with exposed beams add to the grandeur and the gas fireplace makes for a cosy environment in winter. There are two additional heat pumps throughout the home and a DVS system. With double glazing and modern insulation standards you should be warm and dry all year round.Follow the sun around the home with your choice of outdoor living options, but always retire to the main living area to watch the sunset with a glass of wine from the deck.A great location, with easy access to schools, the beach, Stanmore Bay Leisure Centre and The New World Shopping Plaza.Viewings by appointment, just give us a call or email to set one up or to request further information.
