and in a way that creates cosy living spaces. They drew on their experience in several previous builds and home restoration projects in planning their home. And while they originally intended it as their forever home, they have decided they now want to challenge themselves with another housing project. From the moment you walk through the front door you will be impressed. The

entrance hall is spacious and confirms that this is a home where no expense has been spared. The glass and timber staircase is a design feature in itself and beautifully complimented by the fine multi-light chandelier that creates a spectacular lighting display at night. This very special home boasts four bedrooms and three living spaces. continued over page

From P11 Downstairs the kitchen is a chef’s dream. It is large and with the owners both keen cooks, it has sufficient bench space for two. It offers two wall ovens, an induction hob and has an engineered stone bench top. The open plan living area sees the kitchen flow into a sunny dining area and a spacious living room that opens through to a sheltered, glass pergola covered outdoor dining area. Cavity sliders separate the living area from the formal lounge. This is heated by a gas fire and opens out to its own secluded deck. The lower level is heated by a floor mounted heat pump and a wall mounted hall heater. Downstairs offers a master bedroom complete with very large walk-through wardrobe and an ensuite that includes spa bath, shower and a sensor wash toilet. The home’s fourth bedroom is also downstairs and while the current owners use this as an office, it has a large wardrobe and could easily accommodate two single beds. The property has a separate guest toilet downstairs and a spacious, separate laundry that opens to the rear yard. The garage provides parking spaces for three vehicles and offers a drive through option to the backyard. There is also loft storage above the garage, accessed by a pull-down ladder. The home has been designed to create a second level area that is self-contained. There are two generous bedrooms with excellent wardrobes. They share a Jack and Jill bathroom. A third living area has been built on the second level and this comes complete with a cupboard enclosed kitchenette and its own private balcony. Views of the mountains from the upper level create a feeling of openness and space. The current owners use this as quiet retreat but the entire second level would be ideal for teenagers, guests who wanted some independence or as an Airbnb opportunity. The property was designed and built by local tradesmen and while the owners had already built several homes, they say when completed it exceeded their expectations both in quality and as a place to live and call home. With an interior colour scheme of pale grey and white, the home provides a blank canvas on which new owners can create their own special place – modern, eclectic or traditional – it is a home that will suit all furniture and furnishing styles. This very special Wills Street home is sited on an 822 square metre section. It is located just a short walk from town and is very close to the Ashburton Domain. It is well fenced to ensure maximum privacy. It is for sale by negotiation, with viewing by appointment only, with agents First National.

Above – The Wills Street property offers a perfect place for couples to cook with spacious benchtops and a great layout. Below left – The second-level living space opens to a sunny balcony. Below right – Both first and second floor bathrooms are long on luxury.
