Downstairs the spacious dining and large warm and cosy living areas, complete with a Rinai Linear 1000 gas fire, lead to two outdoor spaces that include a covered patio. Both patios lead onto a large back lawn with plenty of space for a trampoline and the children to play, while the covered area boasts an exquisite locally made Flare outdoor fire which makes a remarkable centrepiece, and is a fantastic addition for cooking summer barbeques, relaxing with a drink or warming up on those crisp winter days.

ATMOSPHERIC DESIGN

The neutral and earthy tones of the interior complement the black tapware, cedar accents and black-painted alcoves and walls in the kitchen, lounge, and dining, create a cohesive feeling of homely ambience. Outside, the innovative LED strip lighting provides a sense of showstopping drama as it creates shadow lines against the white brick veneer of the double garage and lights up the rustic shale cedar cladding and ZinaCore ebony-coloured roof.

LAID-BACK FAMILY LIVING

The Showhome consists of three spacious upper-level bedrooms with ample storage, two bathrooms and a study. The master bedroom is positioned to maximise the morning sun and offers picturesque views of Mount Tauhara on the beautiful Lake Taupō.

But the real focal point of the master bedroom is the luxurious, fully tiled ensuite, complete with a large, raised walk-in shower and stunning freestanding bath that begs for a relaxing soak at the end of a long day. Stylish hanging ball pendants and LED strip lighting around the tub and beneath the vanity complement and enhance the contemporary and calming mood.

Teenagers or guests who crave privacy are catered for with a downstairs bedroom and another luxurious bathroom complete with freestanding bath and separate shower. The open-plan kitchen includes an open scullery and rustic Dekton kitchen island coloured in earthy and moody tones, while the dark cabinetry, black tapware and warm cedar shelving offer a sense of functional indulgence.
