The shape and substance of the New Zealand Kauri Cottage built at 69 Brighton Road in the late 1800's remains there today. The hand sawn weatherboards and simple gabled roof lines are hallmarks of that era. Generations of families lived in the virtually unchanged cottage until 2020 when a brilliant architect, an inspired owner and a team of craftsmen rebuilt and extended this three bedroom cottage and transformed it into to a beautifully modern four bedroom family home.
The flavour of early New Zealand architecture remains throughout with polished timber floors, high ceilings, newly made cedar panelled doors, generous architraves, and trims. Everything you love about a brand-new home is here: - double glazing, insulation, gas fireplace, air-conditioning, tiled bathrooms, spacious family kitchen and internal access double garaging.
The living is easy with all four bedrooms and living room more or less on one level - you will love the easy access to the generous deck and bowling green level back lawn beyond. Past the shining black front door a wonderful sense of light and space awaits. The cleverly designed skylights and floor to ceiling sliding doors create excellent natural light throughout every room. You will enjoy the extra large bedrooms and the beautifully appointed kitchen, scullery and bathrooms. No expense has been spared to create a calm, sophisticated home complete with beautiful slate tiles, high end appliances and quality cabinetry.
Waste no time to view this special home set on a large full site over 700 square metres.
