Designed by acclaimed architect Richard Weston and built in 2003, this stunning two-level home has been cleverly positioned to take full advantage of the north-western aspect and is situated on a private rear section overlooking the Taipo Stream and reserve. The board and batten aesthetic and copper spouting blends harmoniously with beautifully landscaped grounds, featuring Nikau palms and lush gardens. A covered, well-lit, all-weather walkway is both welcoming and practical, linking the double garage and studio to the home.
A stylish front door opens to a spacious hallway with double doors leading to the generous, bright and airy open-plan kitchen, dining and family area with timber detailing and sunny corner window seats. Raked ceilings feature statement macrocarpa beams and are mirrored in the adjacent living room retreat, complete with built-in shelving and storage. Doors from the family/dining room provide direct access to the expansive deck with shade sail, perfect for alfresco entertaining with family and friends. The Pyro Classic fire ensures cosy winters.
Ground floor accommodation offers two double bedrooms with wardrobes, positioned close to the family bathroom. A clever use of space offers a home office with views to the garden plus compact laundry and outdoor sink. Upstairs offers a spacious master with balcony, en-suite and walk-in wardrobe plus a single bedroom or nursery.
Positioned above the large double garage is a spacious studio/hobby room, offering a myriad of options. Eco friendly, the ground floor is almost completely double glazed with the bonus of solar energy. A delightful tearoom offers a private retreat overlooking the stream and beautiful gardens.
Just a short drive or healthy stroll to the Taradale shopping centre, doctors, sports clubs, excellent schools, childcare, walking/cycling tracks and quick access to the expressway and airport.
