SLEEK AND LUXURIOUS AND THE ANSWER TO YOUR DREAMS

This luxurious contemporary home boasts mesmerising vistas and a profusion of five-star features.

The owners, Ryan and Min are understandably very proud of their expansive cedar, James Hardie EasyLap fibre-cement and Colour steel-roofed dream home. "We both drew our own plans and when we compared them they were pretty identical "Ryan says. Peter Roughan then drew up the final plans and Ryan (who now owns A- Frame Services) got to work.

Outstanding features include a magnificent kitchen and large scullery (by Westwood Kitchens) sitting amidst the expansive open plan dining room and lounge with its tall raking ceiling. The stunning colour scheme throughout is white, charcoal and black with touches of gold.

"We do love it but we now have another project in mind," Ryan says.

In the spacious lounge is a large wood burner behind which Ryan has added a block feature. They not only look good but also absorb the heat, releasing it overnight. In addition, the heat transfer system sends warmth throughout the bedrooms and office.

Windows to the south offer glorious unrestricted views of the mountain. To the north are views across to Paritutu, the chimney, the bush-covered valley and the Herekawe Walkway.

Flooring is a combination of beautiful polished charcoal-coloured concrete and plush grey carpets.

Kitchen storage is everywhere you look in the form of ultra-smart black-painted oak veneer cupboards and wide soft-close drawers. There is a five-hob induction cooker and there are double eye level ovens. The extra-large island bench is polished engineered stone. The scullery is fitted with a bench, sink, drawers and shelves and a second dishwasher.

Off the magnificent passage-way with its massive windows is the media room, the master suite, bedrooms, bathroom and study. Further on is the well-appointed laundry, a huge double garage and single garage/workshop.

In the media room shelving accommodates the electronic hub where you can choose what is played through the inbuilt speaker system throughout the house. Never again miss the rugby commentary when you leave the TV.

Next door, the master suite is a show-stopper. It has a room-sized walk-in dressing room with shelving, mirrors on the front and back walls and built in drawers .Opposite is their bathroom featuring a unique white tiled wall and a large stylish white oval bath. The super-sized wet shower, tucked behind a wall, has a large rainhead fitting. The bedroom itself is super-sized and opens onto the deck.
"It is so cool when you walk out of the bedroom and the mountain is right there," Min says of the three massive hallway windows. Further down the hallway, the main bathroom is beautifully appointed and features a stunning patterned wallpaper.

On driving up the long driveway there is ample parking space at the front. The well-tended attractive gardens along the front of the house are well-established. They have fenced the property and also included a viewing platform to take full advantage of their views, and being on a 4218 m2 plot there is still plenty of room for the chickens and a couple of sheep.

The location is impressive. It is a very short drive into New Plymouth or down to Back Beach, yet the property retains its privacy.

The property is marketed by TSB Realty's Roz Rowe and Jan Bishop, who say that this stunning property on the city edge will be a hotly contested dream home of not only families, but farming retirees.
