An elegant adjacent lounge is generously proportioned, has been hard wired for home theatre and it also opens to the outdoor deck where a spa pool provides the perfect spot to relax at the end of the day.

The master bedroom has a generous sized ensuite with double shower, walk-in robe, and its own access to the outdoors, plus magnificent views to the foothills. Three other family bedrooms complete that end of the home, but the icing on the cake is the large studio - a very versatile room that could be used for a home office, business, hobby room or even an art studio.

The home has solar domestic hot water and underfloor reticulated heating via heat pump with each room able to be independently thermostatically controlled as well as an additional guest toilet and an internal access double garage.

Extensive lawns and established easy-care native plantings wrap around and embrace the home, complemented by a floral garden area, large children's play space with climbing structures, a small orchard, pony shelter with hitching rail and an impressive three bay, high stud shed with roller doors, concrete floor and three phase power connected.

There are paddocks for pets, animals, a council supplied water system, water storage, and large areas for parking plus easy access from Mairangi Lane - a private driveway.
