In a sought after no exit road, the Newstead property has a sanctuary-like vibe and is the ideal spot to raise a family. The 1ha grounds are spacious, and the large modern 312sqm four-bedroom residence is a quality brick build with UPVC joinery for extra insulation and argon filled dual pane glazing to dispel chilly winter mornings. An absolute delight to live and entertain large crowds in, the home is light-filled, calm, quiet and self-sustaining. It was designed and constructed eight years ago by the owners whose aim was to create a peaceful haven away from the world. It achieves a perfect synergy of space and cosy intimacy and is set back from the road for privacy. The entrance foyer links to the large open plan entertainer's kitchen, dining and family room sitting under a raked ceiling. Granite bench tops, modern appliances and a walk-in pantry give the kitchen panache and practicality. A formal lounge and media room provide superb break-out spaces to cater for everyone's activities. There's nothing better than snuggling up on family movie nights with the large fireplace roaring. Parents can rest easy in a master bedroom with an ensuite and walk-in robe, and an enticing open-air spa outside their door for evening relaxation and star gazing. High-end vanities feature in the spacious main bathroom. Imported windows fitted throughout keep the interior warm and comfortable in winter, and insect-free over summer while providing a lovely breezy openness. Efficient glazing and solar hot water panels promise good savings on heating bills. The large rain-collection tank with UV filtration supplies beautiful crisp water all year round. There is ample room for outside games, paddocks for livestock, a large veggie garden, a young, producing orchard and a two-bay shed. Just minutes from the new ring road, Ruakura hub and Hillcrest shops, and easily accessible to some of Hamiton's best public schools, a family is in paradise here.
