130 Margaret Avenue, Havelock North, Hastings, Hawkes Bay

Occupying a stunning, private position on a popular lifestyle estate, this dual level home bridges classical styling and contemporary character. With far reaching views out over Havelock North to the Plains and Ruapehu beyond, it presents an exceptional family lifestyle where comfort and leisure converge.

The heart of this home is the recently refurbished kitchen with wow factor and complemented by oak flooring that provides a timeless feel. Quality appliances, marble benchtops and sleek cabinetry, make both daily meals and entertaining a delight. The open-plan kitchen opens to the light filled family room and dining area that also opens up to the terrace for alfresco living. The separate formal lounge with cathedral ceilings and picture window, is positioned off the welcoming foyer.

The home has a generous footprint, offering configuration options as five bedrooms or four bedrooms plus study including a generous master suite with a balcony offering views, en-suite and walk through wardrobe. Upstairs there is also a separate study or single bedroom and a spacious versatile room that enjoys views over the rear garden. Downstairs, two further bedrooms and bathroom provide room for all, alongside plenty of storage, the laundry and triple garaging.

Enhanced by a palette of neutral tones, modern finishes and the year-round comfort of four heat pumps and cosy wood burner, the home provides plenty of space for a growing family yet retains intimacy.

Set amongst mature gardens comprised of fruit trees, large lawned areas and a petanque court, it has a real connection with the grounds that wrap around the home, providing privacy and a semi-rural setting, close to excellent schooling and Havelock North village.
