Architecturally designed to make this is a home where striking design and everyday comfort exist beautifully together. Expansive walls of glass dissolve the boundary between inside and out, drawing the rural landscape deep into the home while clever positioning and beautifully established gardens maintain complete privacy. The result is a home that is as comfortable as it is visually stunning - sophisticated without being showy, substantial without ever feeling imposing. Thoughtfully crafted: Inside, exceptional design is matched by exceptional liveability. Generous open-plan living is flooded with natural light, with carefully framed views creating a constant connection to the gardens and rural outlook. The kitchen centres around a substantial island, while acoustic ceiling treatment brings comfort and calm to the expansive living space. The Swiss ceramic wood burner adds warmth and atmosphere when the evening draws in. The bedroom layout is equally considered, creating privacy and separation while keeping the home beautifully connected. It is a floorplan that works effortlessly for couples, guests, older children or simply those who appreciate having room to retreat. Your own private sanctuary: Outside, the architecture gives way to nature. Mature gardens, peaceful outdoor spaces and a natural spring meandering through the landscape create an extraordinary sense of privacy and permanence. The home and garden meld effortlessly, with outdoor living becoming a natural extension of the interiors. Here, mornings begin with coffee overlooking the rural landscape, afternoons disappear among the gardens and evenings are made for lingering outside. The detached studio adds beautifully flexible space for work, creativity, guests or hobbies, while the over-height double carport and adjoining single garage provide the practical side of lifestyle living. Why you’ll love living here: Very few properties manage to combine architectural impact with genuine comfort quite like this. Four hectares give you space to breathe, established gardens create your own private sanctuary and the rural outlook delivers a feeling of escape - yet Rangiora is right on your doorstep. This is the home you buy when you've reached the point in life where you don't need to compromise anymore. You've worked hard, you've earned it and now you deserve somewhere truly special to enjoy it. Somewhere beautiful to wake up, wonderful to entertain in, peaceful to retreat to and entirely your own. This is luxury that doesn't need to shout. It simply surrounds you. Have questions? Would like to view? Whatever you need, please just ask!
