Behind electric gates, a tree-lined driveway ushers you to a private Estate on 1.2ha. The invitation opens via a huge bespoke timber door and a home where privacy and resort-style living converge. Designed and built by the current owners with unwavering attention to detail, this 619 sqm (approx.) solid-masonry residence marries timeless elegance with effortless entertaining. An exceptional and rarely available offering in a highly sought-after area. Inside, a wide gallery hallway introduces refined, light-filled spaces and a wine cellar. Floor-to-ceiling doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, opening to expansive terraces that frame a large, heated in-ground concrete pool. Evenings stretch effortlessly in the cabana beside the outdoor fireplace, while the versatile pool house-with bathroom-doubles as an inspired games room or independent teenage retreat. A pétanque court and broad, level lawns invite long summer afternoons and lingering sunsets. At the heart, a gourmet kitchen anchors daily life and grand occasions alike: premium appliances, a generous walk-in pantry, and an impressive 4m island set the stage for effortless hosting. Multiple interlinked living zones include open-plan dining and family areas and a substantial formal lounge for more intimate gatherings. A dedicated home theatre and a serene library extend the sense of luxury and ease. Accommodation is generous and well considered: five large double bedrooms, three with direct outdoor access. The expansive primary suite is a private sanctuary with a luxurious ensuite. Every element has been curated for comfort, calm, and longevity. Set on approximately 1.2 hectares of beautifully landscaped, completely level grounds, this estate is made for memory making-children and pets at play, a future tennis court already envisioned. Three car garaging and abundant off-street parking easily accommodate guests, a boat, or an RV. For the family who loves to gather, celebrate, and retreat in equal measure, this is more than a home; it's a lifestyle to be cherished. A rare opportunity to secure an entertainers' paradise of substance, grace, and enduring quality. To view/download property files please go to: https://www.harcourtsfiles.co.nz/listings/RY42
