19 Penlington Place, Akaroa, Banks Peninsula, Canterbury

Bathed in all day sun, this very special 2017 architecturally designed home with its two distinct structures offers a unique and relaxing living experience. Set on a beautifully landscaped corner site overlooking the serene vistas of Stanley Park Reserve with panoramic views of Akaroa Harbour and Village, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

The main two-storey dwelling has a sleek apartment feel. On the ground floor is a highly spec'd kitchen with an adjoining dining space which opens out through double glazed sliding doors to the concrete patio and much-loved garden with all its treasures. Upstairs offers exceptionally generous living with picture windows and oversized sliding doors with its electric blind which covers the balcony for year-round enjoyment. The sun-drenched window seat provides a relaxing space to sit and read enjoying the stunning views as your only distraction. A cleverly designed hidden queen bed with its adjoining modern bathroom accommodates your sleeping needs.

Linking both dwellings is a peaceful and sheltered courtyard featuring a cascading water terrace. Used extensively, this is a haven in hot weather and a very special area to sit and relax or to enjoy entertaining family and friends.

The self-contained apartment is currently a very successful high-quality accommodation earner for the owners. Alternatively, it could be used as an idyllic work from home space or a luxurious guest retreat for family and friends. Its sheltered balcony is the perfect spot for alfresco dining to enjoy the established garden and spectacular outlook. Additional features include a sun-drenched double bedroom opening out to the deck, a luxury bathroom and an open plan kitchen/dining/living area which also opens onto the deck.

There is plenty of off-street parking on the expansive exposed aggregate driveway while a single car garage and attached room provides secure parking and storage.

Brilliantly designed and crafted in every aspect, this is a bold modern masterpiece that defies the ordinary.
