Taupaki - Gold Quality Mark 2015

This home won two National Awards in House of the Year 2012, Energy Efficiency Award and Sustainable Homes Award.

Rural family living doesn’t get much better – or bigger – than this 527sqm private oasis in Taupaki, Rodney. An ultra-modern design delivers the ultimate in contemporary comfort.

Large, light-filled interior living spaces are balanced beautifully by the wonderful alfresco entertaining options.

Meals can be enjoyed in the fresh air, overlooking the stunning swimming pool and landscaping.

A dramatic curved feature wall guides guests to the formal lounge or kitchen and family room.

Four bedrooms and four bathrooms are housed in their own wing for peace and privacy. Children’s rooms open onto a separate living area. Their bathroom links directly to the pool area.

The mudroom is a great addition. The beautifully detailed living-dining-kitchen area offers wide-open space under a high raked ceiling. All-day sun floods in through ample glazing.

The designer kitchen serves up state-of-the-art appliances. A suspended extractor fan allows the hosts to interact with guests while cooking.

Back-to-back fireplaces offer the best of both worlds, adding ambience in the formal living room and outdoors. Bliss.
