61 Mahana Ridge, Upper Moutere, Tasman

A thoughtfully designed lifestyle property, this new, 3 bedroom two bathroom home offers a blend of luxury, comfort and room to enjoy the beautiful surroundings on its 1.38 hectare site.

With walking tracks throughout the boutique development, Mahana Ridge is different from other rural developments due to its limited number of generous sized lots - you really feel like you're in the country here.

The open-plan kitchen is a chef's dream of form, function, and efficiency with designer finishes, well-placed (easy access), top-of-the-line appliances, and convenience of a scullery/walk-in pantry.

Strategically situated for optimal northerly sunshine, the house stays cosy on sunny days in winter when sun heats the polished concrete floor. In summer, the house is cooled naturally using flow-through ventilation via remote-controlled, clerestory windows.

Floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors (low e-glass) provide lots of natural light, and under floor heating, an ultra-low emissions wood burner, super-efficient 15kw heat-pump hot water system (COP 5.76), and excellent insulation, all contribute to year-round comfort and minimal energy consumption.

A home theatre space has built-in shelving and an internally wired speaker system to the lounge/dining area.

Step outside to deck and patio areas, where you can soak up the sun and admire rural views, whether you're enjoying your morning coffee or entertaining friends, the panoramic vistas provide a stunning backdrop. The spa pool is the perfect place to unwind after a long day, while a double garage and off-street parking provide plenty of space for vehicles.

Only 5 minutes' drive from SH60, the property is also well placed for easy commuting. Access to Motueka shopping (Countdown & New World, pharmacies, clothing shops, restaurants, etc.) as well as Mapua or Richmond/Nelson is all withing 20 minutes. Indulge in the luxury of this exceptional home and experience the unparalleled beauty of its surroundings.
