Style and entertainment are two words that define this Canterbury residence. The contemporary design of this four-bedroom home projects relaxed living at its best. Textured plaster and vertical cedar cladding connect seamlessly to hardwood decking and landscaping, all of which make for a warm welcome on arrival. Inside, the heart of this home is the kitchen, placed centre stage in the cleverly designed, open-plan, shared dining and living space. The generous island provides plenty of bench space. With Spanish stone countertops, a wine fridge, a chevron-tile splashback, walk-in pantry and bar seating, the kitchen is the star of the show. Sleek German appliances, including a dual oven, complete the cooking and entertaining hub. Living areas are enhanced by the pitched ceiling, which lends light, volume and drama to the scene. Wide-plank timber flooring connects the inside with the outdoors, where life can be lived even larger beyond the already generous 238sqm footprint. The cosy fire nook is a comfort during Canterbury cold snaps and, together with ducted heating and cooling anda water filtration system, this home is well set for a long and happy future.
