Some homes just have that feeling - and this is one of them. Set back from the street, through a gated entrance and sweeping driveway, this is more than a house; it's a private retreat, designed for living large and entertaining well. Step inside, and it's instant. That sense of ease, of space - every room and every detail. A grand entrance sets the tone, leading to a sunken lounge with soaring ceilings, a fireplace, and doors that spill out to a covered courtyard - a space that feels as much indoors as out. Morning coffee in the built-in window seat, watching the light shift across the garden - this is where the day begins. The open-plan living flows seamlessly, with a modernised kitchen at its heart. Black stone benchtops, a 900cm Belling dual-fuel oven, and double pantries - this is a kitchen that hosts, that serves, that works. Four oversized bedrooms, each a retreat in itself. The master is a pure sanctuary - north-west facing, with its own access to the outdoor entertaining area, a walk-in robe, and a beautifully tiled ensuite. Outside, it's private, lush, and considered. A spa pool area tucked away, a north-facing lawn perfect for games, and a high-fenced section that keeps pets and playtime in check. Birdsong, greenery, and the space to breathe - it's all here. For families, there's room to grow, space to play, and schools and Paraparaumu College just minutes away. For entertainers, the flow is effortless - inside, outside, all year round, and for adventure lovers, there's storage for the boat, the camper, the bikes - because here, lifestyle isn't an afterthought. It's built in. *SOURCE: Floor/Land Area & RV: PropertyGuru. RATES: KCDC. FLOORPLAN: Indicative only
