Designed by visionary architect William Noordanus, based on a stunningly clever and whimsical brief by the owners, this home has defined the true essence of surroundings defining lifestyle, and the influence of dreams on the way we live.
Every inch of the property has been thought through in the finest detail, reflecting stories past and future. From the asymmetrical windows to the fine Jarrah woodwork, each room rewards exploration and interaction both playfully and intellectually.
Privacy is a huge feature in the home - reflected best in the bedrooms where space and freedom is met by a sense of calm. The Master is bordered by the curved front wall, with a thin horizontal window connecting to the hills beyond. The adjoining bathroom with it's mosaic tiles shows true craftsmanship, and is accompanied by a walk-in wardrobe to die for and even a private balcony. The other two bedrooms are spacious and boast plenty of storage. One with the sound of the ocean a mere 150m away, the other full of sunshine and great views to Clifton Hill.
The living areas are an interconnecting haven for exactly that... Living. The large main room has an amazing double height portion of ceiling giving a real sense of drama. The dining connects to the private courtyard beyond and opens to the kitchen complete with its own connection to the sun and the trees.
Outdoors is another world in itself... every step opens new discoveries and zones to live and enjoy depending on the mood and the weather... from the Japanese style pond to the paved areas and planting. Privacy once again is the key here, never compromised throughout the landscaping.
Other features of the property include a generous double garage with internal access, Italian Carrara tiles, Bose sound system, monitored security system and panic alarm, and video cabling. The earthquakes left the home unscathed, due to the conscious decision to invest in double block construction, steel and concrete upper level floors, and structural steel bones. This is truly a home for the ages.
The wonders of Sumner and Redcliff's are so close... and only a short walk down to the Sumner Village with its eclectic mix of cafes, restaurants and shopping, and of course the beaches and recreational wonder that is so unique to Christchurch.
Explaining a home like this isn't about where to start... it's about where to finish. And that's where your imagination will be left after you visit.
