This certified builder's own home had been expertly re-invented with artisan skill and exactingly chosen, exquisite materials to create a stylish, sunny, low-maintenance retreat where you can relax and recharge. From the substantial slate slab at the entry, welcoming you into a soaring double-height foyer showcasing impeccable American Oak herringbone flooring, you can tell that every detail has been carefully considered and skilfully executed.

Cedar, weatherboard and block construction team with immaculate double-glazed joinery in this sunny contemporary home, where abundant glazing and skylights flood the interior with sunlight. The spacious open-plan living-dining-kitchen also incorporates a study area. The bespoke entertainers' kitchen designed by Veryan Faye has leathered Dolomite stone benchtops and a Miele oven. ECC lighting and Velux skylights feature throughout, with electric blinds throughout the open-plan area and heat pumps to warm or cool. Living flows out easily to a fully fenced, north-facing courtyard, partially covered so it can be enjoyed whatever the weather. Sonos built-in speakers help set the scene for outdoor entertaining while a bubbling hot tub is nestled into the beautiful landscaping.

Both this level's bathroom and the upstairs bathroom feature exquisite Italian tiles. Vaulted ceilings add to the sense of spaciousness upstairs, where the master bedroom accompanies a double bedroom and a single bedroom.

The convenience of this peaceful street means you can leave cars at home in the internal-access double garage and bike or stroll to Benson Road shops, the Orakei Basin walkway and Orakei Bay Village. Dog-friendly Ventnor Reserve is just three properties away, linking to Rangitoto Reserve with its playground, walkways and skate park. Popular Meadowbank Primary is within walking distance and zoning includes Remuera Intermediate and Selwyn College, with sought-after private schools nearby.
