13 Papawhero Drive, Bell Block, New Plymouth, Taranaki

Considering the cost of construction for a home of this quality, plus the land value, this now represents exceptional value for money. It is no ordinary new-build and must be seen to be appreciated. You will be impressed as soon as you enter the home; every detail has been meticulously crafted to create a comfortable and elegant home that will stand the test of time.

The 186sqm (more-or-less) floor area features three double bedrooms including a master with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, two living areas, two bathrooms, plenty of storage and a double garage set on a fully fenced, landscaped section of 465sqm (more or less).

The sun-filled, open-plan kitchen, living and dining area is a standout feature with a high-pitched ceiling, skylights and engineered oak flooring. The sleek and contemporary kitchen boasts quality appliances. A cleverly designed scullery “nook” with a pantry and tea and coffee station provides handy extra storage. Double skylights above the kitchen bring in natural light and ventilation, with the added convenience of automatic closure in rainy weather. Large sliding doors from the living area open to a partially covered deck, complete with an outdoor fireplace—ideal for year around entertaining.

The master suite has a luxurious feel with floor-to-ceiling drapes and a fully tiled ensuite. Large sliding doors lead directly to the deck, offering seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The main bathroom continues the theme of refinement, featuring high-end fittings. Central heating and double-glazing with thermally broken aluminium joinery ensures comfort and energy efficiency.

Buyers who aren't ready to move into their new home right away can take advantage of a lucrative lease-back option. Fowler Homes will lease the property for $900 per week and continue using it as a show home until you're ready to move in. The lease-back period is flexible and can be negotiated to fit your timeline.

Designed for effortless living, this executive home sits on a low-maintenance section, allowing you to enjoy the Taranaki lifestyle - or simply lock-up-and-leave while you travel.
