Superbly styled for modern family living, this award-winning home is every bit a star. Built in 2016 and achieving gold status the following year in the Waikato Master Builders Home of the Year Awards. Total quality throughout, the home is perfectly in tune with today's lifestyle needs. It has a natural inclination for laidback living and entertaining against a panoramic background encompassing views of the Hakiramata Ranges. Decks extending off the open-plan family zone provide sunny spots to bask in from morning to evening. The separate lounge/media room also connects to the sheltered portico and deck, creating a large fluid space to socialize with family and friends. The kitchen is a model of efficiency, with European appliances, a dry scullery and a beautiful solid timber feature bench which is a real focal point. Restful, sanctuary-like bedrooms balance the shared living spaces. All are double-sized and fitted with noise-reducing insulation and solid-core doors for added peace and quiet. Both the ensuite and main bathroom have wet area showers and a sleek pristine vibe. A separate laundry and double garage with fitted storage and a storeroom with external access round off the well-considered floor plan. Fully ducted air-conditioning keeps the interior ambient throughout the year and roof-mounted solar panels help keep the power bills down. This modern wonder occupies a landscaped and fully fenced 697sqm section enhanced by low-maintenance gardens, a Colorsteel garden shed, raised veggie beds and a private backyard. Part of the River Terraces development, the property is footsteps from Ngaruawahia Golf Course and the popular river cycle trail. Approx 10 minutes to Te Rapa, The Base and Hamilton city and commuting to Auckland is a breeze thanks to the expressway which is close by.
