19 Lake Domain Drive, Hamilton Lake, Hamilton, Waikato

In a boutique location opposite Lake Rotoroa, this sprawling 1250sqm blue-chip property delivers a dream lifestyle in the heart of the city. Its nature-inspired views are a joy to wake up to and the outlook provides an exceptional backdrop for everyday relaxation and entertaining.

This is a home where magic meets functionality. A bay window in the spacious lounge frames the lake and walkway. Homeowners can watch all the activity and moods of the lake from the comfort of their couch or, better still, laze their Sunday mornings away in the master suite admiring the outlook. There is little chance of being disturbed as the kids are superbly catered for upstairs where they have their own playroom, lounge, and bedroom.

The well-equipped kitchen opens to a generous dining room which spills onto a covered deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living in a private nest screened by trees. Many pleasant moments are in store for family and guests in this gorgeous garden setting.

Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, three toilets and lounges upstairs and down reflect the home's capacity for large-scale family living. The laundry is a decent size and goes the extra distance thanks to a separate toilet and outdoor access, perfect for gardeners. And the garaging is sure to impress as it encompasses more than 66sqm and is adjoined by a double carport. Visitors can park on the large, cobbled forecourt.

Recreation is on tap as the lake domain and Innes Common are hives of activity throughout the year.

With enormous value lying in its land and location, real estate like this is rare.
