Home on the Range

Conveniently located, minutes from St Peters School and Cambridge, this ranch style homestead combines the best of modern family living with the peace and tranquillity of a country setting. Cleverly referencing a classic barn style, this modern-rustic home is only two years old and has been lovingly crafted by a quality builder for his family to enjoy.

As you enter through the impressive rimu front door into the huge double height living area that forms the hub of the house, it is not hard to visualise the extensive entertaining that has taken place here. A large schist covered gas fireplace is perfectly in keeping with the ranch-style feel. This living space flows seamlessly into the dining area and then kitchen which is a testimony to the craftsmanship with which the house is built. Stunning rimu and kauri cabinetry is a feature here, and this plus beautiful macrocarpa joinery throughout the home, further adds to the rustic comfortable feeling of the place. This side of the house opens out through French doors onto a long veranda just perfect for catching the morning sun, or with its built in bar and room for a bbq, perhaps entertaining in the evening. An additional TV or family room is handily located next to these spaces, yet able to be shut off by double doors when the children are watching TV.

Downstairs in the western wing you will find the master bedroom with its own walk-through robe and ensuite. A fifth bedroom or office is also located here along with guest bathroom, laundry and plenty of storage. The internal access double garage alone includes three double cupboards, perfect for storing tools or hobby equipment.

Upstairs is the children's domain. The owners say this has worked really well as it allows the kids their own privacy and space whilst their parents entertain downstairs. There is a spacious lounge for them to relax in, plus three bedrooms and their own bathroom and toilet. Plumbing has also been put in for a small kitchenette should they really want to be self-sufficient!

The ranch-style home sits proudly in the middle of its flat almost one acre section, surrounded by other farm and lifestyle properties. Currently the grounds are a blank canvas for a creative gardener to get their hands on, however full landscaping plans for gardens and a pool are available. Behind the house is a concrete pad for an additional double garage for which all consents have been completed.

This wonderful barn-like home has loads of character and would make an ideal place for a family to relax and enjoy rural surroundings without the time-consuming upkeep. Come and see how your own ranch style retreat could be a reality, all within easy distance of cafes, great schools and the facilities of Cambridge.
