Description
There are very few modern houses in the area that have that WOW factor, but this is definitely one that has. This immaculate single storey 4 bedroom house is just superb.
The exceptional stone fronted house is an impressive 188sqm set in spacious grounds of 2,370sqm which includes its own olive grove complete with 28 mature, productive olive trees. This immaculate property comprises open plan living room of approximately 90sqm, 4 double bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, two of which are en-suite.
Entrance Porch: This recent addition not only provides a perfect covered access point but is also a superb location for shoes, coats & shopping bags prior to entry to the main house.
Luxury Kitchen: The impressive Italian kitchen units are a very rich ruby red with glossy white work surfaces. The wall units are partially glazed with under-unit lighting. The deep drawers of the units are soft-close and the top quality appliances include dishwasher, split level fan-assisted oven with ceramic digital hob, stainless steel extractor and large fridge/freezer.
To the left of the kitchen is a door leading to a:
Utility room: a fully finished room which is large enough for laundry machinery plus storage of linens and cleaning equipment.
Mezzanine: Located between the kitchen and main living area is the substantial staircase leading to the very attractive and practical mezzanine floor. This is a perfect occasional bedroom, office or extra seating area.
Living room: This vast room is just so impressive with its soaring vaulted ceiling, glossy cream tiles and huge antique style crafted stone fireplace. Individual touches such as the owners’ choice of furniture, soft furnishings and the gorgeous ruby-red handmade pendant light-fittings further enhances this lovely room. The fireplace was inspired by a family heirloom antique print and an exact copy was hand carved, which now is a central focal point of the room.
Patio doors on either side of the fireplace lead to the enormous shaded veranda which looks out towards Vamos with the backdrop of the White Mountains.
Bedrooms 1 & 2: Discretely located off a small hallway to the left of the living room are the master bedroom and bedroom 2. Each of these rooms is a generous double room with fitted wardrobes providing plentiful storage. They each also have private fully-tiled large en-suite shower rooms in a striking pale lime & Citrine colour combination. Patio doors lead from the master bedroom to the front veranda.
Guest suite: To the right of the living room and mirroring the left wing of the house is a second alcove hallway leading to 2 further large bedrooms. Again generous doubles, these are separated by shower room 3 which is tiled in a vibrant hot cinnamon colour. The front bedroom has patio doors leading to the front terrace.
Basement: The under-house basement is large enough to house the boiler, 1,000ltr oil tank, water tanks 2,000lt, garden furniture and tools.
External: The garden immediately surrounding the house is fully protected by stone walls and a large sliding wrought iron gate. Raised flower beds and a vegetable garden surround the large off-road parking area. Paved walkways lead the way round the house.
To the rear of the house is a raised decking platform with seating area and a 4 person hot tub/Jacuzzi. On the lower level is a large tile pergola which can be a BBQ area or shaded seating area. It would also be possible to make this into a workshop. The lower level garden is gravelled for easy maintenance and as it is sheltered from the breezes by trees and a large stone wall, it makes a real sun trap. A gate leads to the olive grove with its 28 productive trees some of which are around 150 years old. Steps lead up from this garden back to the front veranda.
