Sitting high on its site, this home in Clearwater, Christchurch, demands attention. Extensive sloping lawns spill gently down to the crystal-clear Kaikainui stream. The park-like setti ng gives the home an established air.

Modern finishes, with a mix of reflective and textured surfaces, enhance the edgy interior. A seamless design fully captures the outside world, blessing the interior with all-day sun. The internal powder room is an exception to this rule. The ntentionally moody space is brightened by glitter and lights that make the occupant feel like a star. A well-appointed wine cellar can be found in the hallway near the guest room. With great flow to interior spaces and outdoor living, the kitchen is the heart of this four-bedroom home. A cantilevered benchtop makes serving alfresco meals and drinks super simple. There’ll be plenty of days spent outside on the polished concrete patios and hardwood decking areas. Or lolling in the generous in-ground swimming pool and spa, with an impressive infinity-edge feature.
