Esplanade Tranquility for the Family

A timeless example of 1979 architecture is clearly evident here in the heart of Kairanga and the popular Lockwood Loop Road. Set amongst mature 100 year old native trees and an esplanade of gardens this is a family property to be proud of. Mistakenly this home could be taken as a lodge but is very family orientated.

Firstly consider the accommodation where picture postcard windows and high vaulted ceilings allow for the outdoors to come in. The main lounge with its feature fireplace is a beautiful room and the separate and very appealing family room for kids or adults to enjoy multi media sports and movies is superb. There is a wooded experience throughout this home where kauri floors, rimu joinery and exterior cedar cladding give you a sense of warmth that only a lodge could convey. This together with appealing lighting and fresh colour tonings combine well beautifully. The house comprises of approximately 331m2 (excluding garage/workshop and guest house) and includes four plus bedrooms and three bathrooms. The swimming pool and private fenced established entertaining area is an all day sun paradise in the middle of summer. Decking is easy on the eye.

The grounds feature a large garage/workshop and is the perfect “man shed” able to accommodate countless vehicles and includes a mezzanine area with some of the best storage we have seen. Add to this the totally refurbished “Possum Cottage” which now includes two double bedrooms and bathroom for guests or teenagers. A rear paddock for further shedding or livestock has access from a right-of-way drive adjoining the property - perfect for those in trade.

For children there are plenty of places to hide, climb a tree, kick a ball or just hang out. We don’t think there is a better driveway in the Manawatu and we must mention this very popular neighbourly location and is a great place to live. Our owners would consider swapping this home for a home in the city.
