Phill Broom – 1300 200 100

Ascend to the highest point of Kenmore Hills and pat yourself on the back. The owners’ vision 15 years ago has now produced one of the area’s most value-added property opportunities – a home custom-designed for its lofty block and offering sigh-worthy views over the surrounding valley and mountains.

Clever design is evident from the moment you enter the mosaic-tiled entry foyer of this four-bedroom home. Not only are there both formal and informal entertaining areas in the sizeable downstairs precinct, but also a super-sized media room has been reclaimed from the home’s original double garage. A single bedroom, study and ensuite on this level add two extra selling points for parents: separation and peace-and-quiet.

It’s been well noted that this home offers more privacy than nearby acreage blocks selling for millions. Hear nothing but the wind rustling through the native trees; see nothing but stately treed outlooks; hear nothing but the kindly invitation of a neighbour organising one of the Close’s regular street parties.

The right family will buy a lifestyle as much a home in this perfectly located property: a solar-heated, saltwater pool occupies the property’s south-west corner. Combine this with a decadent sun deck and outdoor eatery and every weekend of the year is accounted for.

Other features include:

Main bedroom with ensuite and walk-in robe.

Cathedral ceilings in downstairs formal area.

Drought-resistant, lawn-free landscaping incorporating abundant natives and uniquely local plants.

Five-burner gas stove.

Plush NZ wool carpeting.

Two minutes to local bus stop and 3km to Kenmore Village.

Double carport including lockable workshop.
