You can still view property at Level 3 - Ring Murray for a private appointment. **ACCESS VIA MATANGI ROAD** 21 years of family living and a couple of major updates has brought this magnificent property to 21st-century standards. My vendor has reached the stage where it is now time to move on to new challenges, thereby presenting an unparalleled opportunity to own this prestigious oasis, right up against the city boundary. The environment surrounding the property is one of its unique features - the bush with the adjacent QEII kauri-filled outlook - this is a home connected to its natural surroundings, with expanses of glass maximising the bush, pool and garden views. Watch the sun creep through the majestic trees as the dawn unfolds, and enjoy the busyness of the wildlife. Water is an important facet of this property - from the opportunity to cool off in the 15-metre pool, relax in the spa, or enjoy the spring water that constitutes one of three water supplies to the house - the choice is yours. For the eco-minded purchasers - notwithstanding the environmental benefits of the bush - provision has been made to totally live off the grid with the 18 solar panels, just needs a battery bank. The main dwelling features expansive living areas, spacious dining room bathed in sunlight, four bedrooms including a magical master with ensuite, family bathroom and a total of three toilets throughout the home, a super large office (currently used as a fifth bedroom), and double internal access garaging. Large windows and doors in the lounge connect you to the back garden, while the doors and windows in the dining and living area look out on to the pool and kauri grove. A separate double garage incorporates a comfortable unit on two levels, which further enhances your options here, whether that is running a home business, a teen hangout spot or extended family living. This is paradise - all on 1.4 hectares. *Please note motorway works in the area and contact Transit NZ for further information.
