Wakefield - Family Friendly Retreat

Description

Are you looking for a more relaxed, quiet and peaceful life away from the city but with amenities within easy walking distance? Set up as a classic 4-bedroom home including a master with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, but futureproofed with the 4th bedroom being designed to convert easily to an additional lounge or living space. All bedrooms have generous storage, and with the main bathroom and separate toilet, this home is perfectly suited to family living.
The back garden provides a wonderful space for kids to play, and the new Galeo Road Reserve and playground across the road allows even more space to play.
With a chorus of bellbirds and tui echoing from the totara grove opposite, open fields behind and no through traffic, this location is peaceful and quiet, yet an easy walk to the village, the famous Wakefield Bakery, Faulkner's Bush reserve and Wakefield School.
With the house just a few years old, the only project left to work on is to develop the back lawn: add decking to enjoy the last of the evening sun? build a sleepout or office space? plant it out in flowering trees to bring the birdlife right to your doorstep?
As you walk in the door it quickly becomes apparent the attention to detail the owners have put into designing this well-appointed and warm home. It has a cosy log burner in the lounge, butler's pantry and laundry off the kitchen, motion-activated floor lighting, hidden office nook, dual stacking sliders opening up the living areas to the sheltered outside entertaining area, garden irrigation and oversize garage with attic storage. This northwest facing home is perfectly aligned to capture sun onto the entertaining areas and the full length of the house in the afternoon.
