Located in the prestigious gated community of Dry Hills Estate, at the foot of the Wither Hills farm park, on the edge of Blenheim, this impressive 512sqm (more or less) six bedroom home on one and a half acres provides an enviable lifestyle for anyone looking for sophisticated family living.

Upon entering the front door through a wall of volcanic stone you are immediately aware of the appealing proportions, joinery craftsmanship and a stunning view across a light and airy foyer through two stories of window, to an expansive deck, the swimming pool, lawn, trees and mountains beyond.

To the right is stylishly functional living, a kitchen at the heart, overlooking an island bench to casual dining and a sunny living room, opening to a broad deck and a solar heated swimming pool. The kitchen is well equipped with boiling, chilled and sparkling water on tap, a commercial size oven with a hotplate and 6 gas hobs to cater for masses while in behind is a generous butler's pantry, plenty of extra bench, cupboard and shelf space, a large tub, a second fridge freezer and a second dishwasher.

Also on the ground floor is a separate sitting room, a private guest bedroom with ensuite bathroom, a large laundry and utility room, a five car garage and gym. Upstairs is a media room, four more bedrooms and two bathrooms. All bathrooms have baths as well as showers with the master suite being particularly luxurious. There is an impressive sound system, plenty of storage and with the choice of air conditioning heat pumps, HRV, gas fires and under tile heating, the home is always comfortable.

Outside, there are spaces for all occasions, plenty of family friendly lawn, a playhouse with Sky TV, a couple of useful garden sheds, a range of citrus, raised vegetable gardens and a generous carpark, all concealed from the road with attractive stonewalls and an electric gate. Solar panels keep power bills to a minimum.

Dry Hills Estate is an established safe and secure community with easy access to walking and mountain bike tracks. Nearby, Blenheim supplies all essential services. The airport is within a 10 minute drive and popular local activities include wine tasting, restaurants, golf, fishing, swimming and boating.

This property works as well for a couple on their own, as it does for a large family. It is an expansive taste of the good life in New Zealand's sunniest region.
