As you step beyond the unassuming street frontage, through the post box red front door and into the large entrance lobby, an enveloping sense of light and ease of flow imbibe you, and it is clear that this house exudes a special ambience where the interior focus is very much like the architectural details - minimal, high design, organic and luxe. Spread over 265 sqm and two levels, here is a home of elegantly proportioned spaces, both functional and sophisticated and designed to facilitate a growing family.
The spacious kitchen, featuring composite stone bench tops, gas hobs and excellent storage, offers a functional but stylish hub which, together with the large open plan dining space, invites entertaining on both a formal and intimate scale. One each side of the gas fire are blinds, controlling light from the north facing lounge to emanate into the dining and casual living area. You get a tantalising glimpse of the high, vaulted ceiling that is a design highlight of the expansive formal living room which unfolds through glass doors to embrace sun-drenched, north facing patio areas and an understated garden of structured simplicity, which promises many hours enjoying al fresco dining come the summer months.
Located on the ground level, the master bedroom, with substantial walk-in-wardrobe, nicely appointed en-suite and glass doors which unfold into the paved courtyard area, encourages lazy Sunday morning sleep-ins - and is perfectly set up to welcome visiting family and friends, or as ideal accommodation for an elderly relative.
Upstairs, as one would expect, the three remaining bedrooms are all generous in proportion, each with easy access to one of two bathrooms. Two of these bedrooms are so large that they can accommodate a sofa and coffee table, so are the perfect teenager's retreat. There is also a study area, which overlooks the downstairs formal lounge, and offers an excellent space for a work-from-home environment.
Complemented by discreet Hebel construction and aluminium joinery ensuring the longevity of the exterior, this executive but family friendly home is centrally located within the sought after school zones of Christchurch Boys' High and Girls' High Schools, with the CBD, the University, Westfield Mall and Christchurch International Airport all just a few minutes' drive away. A winning combination of space and style, design and detail, luxury living and location, this property is bound to exceed all your expectations.
After 13 years enjoying raising their family here, the owners are now down-sizing and bid a fond but definite farewell to this suburban gem.
