Hilltop family retreat

Staff Reporter

It is coming up 40 years since the owners of this Gorge Road home chose this property as their family home.

Over the years, it has served them well with its space and versatile layout, generous section and prime location on Mokorua hill – so well they’ve always chosen to renovate rather than move ... until now.

The hope is that another family will take the opportunity and love this home as much as they have.

On offer is a two-storey home, set well back from the road with open-plan living, three bedrooms upstairs and one bedroom/office downstairs along with a large rumpus room.

In total, the home is 220 square metres, with a large double basement garage and plenty of dry storage beneath the house.

a home that feels welcoming the moment you step inside and one that features some of the best architectural styles of its era including high sloping ceilings with exposed beams and cathedral windows.

The lounge, which is to the front, flows through to a dining room that opens on the back garden, and a large, modern kitchen.

There’s a separate laundry, family bathroom with separate toilet and shower room, and three large double bedrooms with the main opening onto the front balcony.

The back garden has been well tended over the past 38 years and offers an variety of well-established fruit trees and vegetable beds along with space for private entertaining.
