154 Dry Hills Lane, Blenheim, Marlborough Vendors Reluctantly Having to Sell

Set amidst mature trees on a large, flat, private section in prestigious Dry Hills Estate, this impressive, recently completed five bedroom, three bathroom home was built to be a forever home, but circumstances changed, and without being able to enjoy the fruit of their efforts, the vendors have now relocated overseas and will be considering all offers at deadline.

Thoughtfully designed and beautifully crafted, the 408 sq m house comfortably caters for family and friends. Expansive open-plan living space includes a sitting room, dining and a large kitchen with a butlers pantry and plenty of cupboard and drawer space. Glass doors open to covered outdoor living, an open fire and barbecue area (a separate formal sitting room, a study and a discrete hobby or toy room complete the living space).

A guest bedroom with en-suite is located at one end of the house while family occupy the other end, with an en-suited master bedroom, three additional bedrooms and a family sized bathroom. There is a walk-in linen cupboard and a large laundry utility room with ready access to a washing line in the back courtyard, which also features a fenced childrens play area, raised vegetable beds, table grapes and several fruit trees.

Boasting a 2.7 metre stud, the dwelling is robustly built with plywood bracing behind the brick walls and under the roof tiles. A gas fire in the living room and a ducted heat pump system ensures warmth and comfort throughout the year. There is an internally accessed two car garage with additional workshop space, a lavatory and an outdoor shower for messy work.
