This stunning, "quintessential Kiwi" property is situated on one of the best sites on Kendall Road, one of the few with water access. The house blends in naturally with the landscape and topography of the area ensuring a home full of natural light where the flow between inside and outside is seamless with extensive decking and estuary views that can be enjoyed from all four bedrooms and both living rooms.
With a boulder protruding through the glass wall of the TV room, skylights and cathedral ceiling in the lounge, a French farm style kitchen with a Stanley wood stove which heats radiators, this well-maintained home is quirky and unique. The configuration offers privacy in both ' wings' which makes it ideal for extended families or as Airbnb accommodation.
The comforts of modern living are provided by solar hot water backed up by electricity and the wood stove, twenty solar panels and two heat pumps.
The stunning, award-winning pool can be accessed from the deck and the master bedroom.
Separate from the main body of the house, a guest studio offers further accommodation, Airbnb option or artist’s retreat.
The grounds have been landscaped by the owner over the past 13 years, and they are truly special with extensive tropical landscaping featuring cycads, palms, bromeliads and rare and unusual plants accessed via boardwalks, platforms and paths. Native Kauri, Rimu, Manuka, Akeake and Towai share the space with the tropical planting. Three massive volcanic boulders provide natural artwork and there are multiple outdoor areas for entertaining and relaxing. A large dining pavilion in the orchard is a wonderful summer retreat.

This is a must see property for buyers wanting something different and special in a premium location.
