Situated in quiet rural surroundings on its own little island created by the flow of the Mangaroa River, this house was built with attention to detail resulting in a spectacular high-end home. The exterior is clad in James Hardie Linea, contrasted with vertical cedar. The striking exterior is complemented with a black plasma door, which is an indication of the quality that lies within. Polished concrete floors keep the three-bedroom house cool during summer and underfloor heating makes it cosy during colder months.

In the high-spec kitchen, the black splashblack, rangehood housing, sink insert and stone bench with waterfall ends are complemented with wood-grain melamine. The main bedroom suite, complete with his-and-her wardrobes and elegant ensuite, lends an air of subtle opulence. In the ensuite you’ll find a floating vanity and wall-tower cabinets on either side. Bifold doors from the living room and sliding doors from the main bedroom peel back and extend the living onto a wraparound kwila deck, where you can enjoy views of the generous grounds and the nearby river.
