44 Panorama Road, Sumner, Christchurch City, Canterbury

Offering a cinematic sweep of spectacular views from the sought after slopes of Clifton Hill, this property leads with lifestyle and exceeds every expectation with its architectural edge and entertainment x-factor.

Designed and completed in 2014 by Wilson & Hill Architects with meticulous planning and engineering. Every detail has been considered to achieve perfect form and function in perfect harmony. Its 444sqm approx floor plan captures an extraordinary panorama, stunning by day and spectacular at night from the Sumner surf line to the distant Kaikoura ranges, a view that stays in play from room to room alongside all day sun.

Highly specified throughout, the grand copper entrance door gives a direct line to the breathtaking ocean views, while a solid American Oak staircase, in-built cabinetry, over height ceilings and expansive glazing deliver an immediate architectural impact.

Arranged across two levels, the top floor presents an elevated accommodation lineup, with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two ensuites and a Jack-and-Jill layout, ensuring a sense of space and privacy for extended family and guests. The primary suite enjoys direct access to a private rooftop deck.

The lower-level shifts into full entertaining mode, opening with a lobby-style gallery before expanding into multiple north-facing living zones. With three distinct social settings, there is a space and place for every occasion.

The high-performance kitchen sets the standard, featuring stone surfaces, a premium suite of appliances and a substantial butler's pantry with additional dishwasher, suited to hosting at any level.

Outdoors, the home extends into an all-season environment, bringing together a heated, salt water infinity lap pool, a spa pool, outdoor shower, timber and tiled terraces, an inbuilt bbq and a louvred terrace featuring a gas fire that keeps the alfresco domain functioning across every season and well into the evening.

Climate control through ducted heating, a gas fire, underfloor heating on the lower level and the bathrooms, while an integrated sound system heightens the atmosphere indoors and carries the sound through speaker to the outdoor alfresco area. A separate laundry, guest toilet, a purpose-built office and a lined triple-car garage and generous off-street parking add definition and depth to the 1068sqm section.

Minutes from popular Sumner village life yet elevated for escape, the sale is driven by a decision to move closer to family, presenting a coastal home defined by scale, sophistication and an uninterrupted seascape.
