Natural Outlook and Practical Living
Built in stages throughout the 90s, this truly unique two-level family home has been thoughtfully crafted to sit in harmony with its natural surroundings. Its timeless design makes the most of its north-facing aspect, drawing in consistent daylight and opening seamlessly to a wraparound deck. The result is an inviting connection between indoors and out-perfect for dining, entertaining, or simply unwinding in a peaceful, private setting.
For the first time on the market, this builder's own home is now offered for sale-a genuinely reluctant listing. Set on a section bordered by Waimea Creek, the property enjoys exceptional privacy and a beautiful outlook across native bush, providing a sheltered, serene environment for families to explore and enjoy.
The ground floor includes an open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area, complemented by a separate lounge. The kitchen is fitted with a gas hob, and the second bathroom is equipped with gas hot water. The Stanley coal range heats the tiled floors, hot water and radiators throughout the home, giving the home a steady warmth in the winter months, while ranch slider and large sliding windows allow for airflow in the summer. A woodfire in the separate lounge offers another heating option.
Generous windows overlook established native vegetation, enhancing the sense of privacy and reinforcing the home's relationship to its surroundings. This central living zone supports everyday family activity and forms a practical base for the remainder of the home.
Three bedrooms open directly onto the deck, encouraging regular use of the outdoor environment and supporting an indoor-outdoor lifestyle. A large family bathroom and a master ensuite provide functional accommodation for households of various sizes.
The upper level contains a substantial second living area and a fifth bedroom, offering flexibility for a retreat, guest suite or other uses. Storage has been incorporated throughout the home for convenience and organisation.
The home features rimu timber and brick throughout, with approximately 60% double glazing, and is constructed on a combination of wooden piles and a concrete base. The exterior incorporates brick, board-and-batten cladding, and corrugated iron. Three large water tanks service the property.
A private track leads directly to Waimea Creek, offering a small secluded beach and the unique ability to canoe to Awatuna Beach in around 15 minutes-an unforgettable lifestyle feature rarely found in a residential property.
A large separate three-door drive-through garage and workshop provides extensive space for vehicles, storage, and recreational equipment, as well as an established glasshouse. Off-street parking is also available.
