Set amidst the Moutere hills in an exceptional country estate and only a few minutes from the delightful village of Mapua, this architect-inspired, highly spec'ed, modern 259sqm home, with three generously sized bedrooms offers contemporary open design, top quality finishes (inside and out) and easy living functionality.

Snuggled into a hillside, this stunning home offers panoramic views across rolling hills to Tasman Bay and the Richmond Range and sits on 1.38 ha of beautifully landscaped grounds with a range of trees and native foliage which attract native birdlife.

Inside, the open-plan presents a northerly aspect of trees, hills, water, and mountains from all living areas with floor to ceiling glass doors sliding completely open to take advantage of the beautiful weather the area is known for.

The open-plan kitchen is a chef's dream of form, function, and efficiency; featuring designer finishes and top-of-the-line appliances, with the convenience of a scullery/walk-in pantry, indoor laundry with heat pump dryer, and substantial storage.

The house gets optimal northerly sunshine and stays cosy on sunny days in winter using the sun to heat its polished aggregate concrete floor, and on cooler winter days, the under-floor heating system provides a luxurious warmth to the entire home.

Year-round comfort is available with minimal energy consumption by using an ultra-low emissions wood burner, a super-efficient heat pump hot water system, excellent (above standard) insulation, the under-floor heating system, northern alignment, and thermally designed/engineered air flows.

The property also features a home theatre space with built-in shelving in the media room, and an internally wired speaker system to the lounge/dining area.

Step outside to the wrap-around decks and patio areas, where you can soak up the sun and admire rural, water, and mountain views that stretch as far as the eye can see.
