23 Cate Road, Rototuna, Hamilton, Waikato

Designed with family in mind, this home delivers a superb amalgamation of internal and external space. Living and family rooms flow onto a large alfresco that can be enjoyed almost all year. It overlooks the swimming pool and is the go-to venue for parties, relaxation and barbecues. Adults can kick back and chat while the kids have fun in the pool. Yet indoor-outdoor flow doesn't end here. The open plan kitchen and dining area accesses a courtyard and a third patio, wrapping around the south side of the home, meets up with the fully fenced swimming pool precinct in the backyard.

Sensible separation of rooms over a single level footprint creates distinct activity and sleep zones. Four bedrooms pander to a growing family and the master boasts an ensuite and walk-in robe. The modern, light-filled kitchen can cater for a crowd and the lounge is an inviting room, ideal for media and entertaining. Well-appointed bathrooms sit on tiled floors and the laundry is tucked at the rear of the double garage.

Two heat pumps and a gas fire keep the interior ambient. A gas infinity system ensures a constant flow of hot water.

The tidy, low maintenance brick home sits comfortably on its 738sqm corner section. Greenery provides good privacy, and the driveway has parking.

Grosvenor Park is footsteps away and Rototuna shops and services are walking distance. The neighbourhood is serviced by public transport and main arterial routes, and in zone for Rototuna Primary.
