Otaihanga Opulence
Your Ben Gilpin-designed modern lodge-style home lies cradled by the river estuary and the cedar and schist cladding glows in the evening light.
You relax as you enter the foyer and walk across the oak flooring into the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen. Light floods in through the bifold glass doors. The vaulted ceilings are stunning, and there are multiple defined living spaces.
The shaker-style kitchen is beautiful and functional. Luxurious, durable black granite work surfaces contrast smartly with the white cabinetry. Special features are the large butcher's block of matching granite and oak, and scullery.
You love the craftsmanship in this home, from the solid timber internal doors to the hand-chipped West Coast schist on the cladding and fireplaces.
The rural outlook is the perfect antidote to stress. Your fully fenced 1.46-ha* section butts up against sweeping decking with a heated pool and comprises paddocks, a large vegetable garden, a five-bay shed, a large loggia with fireplace, and much more.
Your young orchard promises a feast in years to come, with citrus, stone fruits, avocados, and space for more.
The stylish media room is a favourite, and the formal dining room with gas fire and bar is perfect for formal dinners. Central heating ensures the entire home is cosy year-round.
Down the hall, three double bedrooms enjoy either morning or afternoon sun and easy access to one of two luxurious bathrooms on this floor, along with multiple internal access garaging and the bespoke laundry.
Upstairs lies the master suite. Its vaulted ceilings and Italian crystal chandelier add a touch of opulence. The room opens onto decking, and the feeling of a retreat getaway is completed by the large dressing room and the ensuite. Two more rooms with views and afternoon sun complete the upstairs level.
You see yourself in this home for years to come. You love it: the estuary setting, the peaceful ambience.
