Description
Infusing mid-century glam with present day design, 5b Rokino Road is an inviting home that will catch your eye and then capture your heart. Built in solid timbers from native sources, the property is a testament to the enduring craftsmanship of yesteryear whilst embracing with full-force the needs and desires of 21st century living, courtesy of renown local professionals - Shelter Architects..
The home begins with entry to an architecturally-designed and over-height spacious gallery that doubles as a 'retreat' featuring large windows that afford a distillation of light and airiness to an environment of rest.
Rising to the original part of the home, honey-toned Matai floorboards roll out underpinning the main living space and providing a sea of warmth and character which is then bookended with Red Birch ply to the ceilings.
A large slider door to the South-West side of the home casts widescreen views to Lake Taupo and the grand mountains of the central plateau beyond. It also provides seamless access to a generous deck that is ready for summer enjoyment which is completed with a large retractable awning for weather protection. The new kitchen is meticulously designed and offers a breakfast bar for entertaining and it is replete with modern appliances. The guest bedroom offers a built-in wardrobe and block-out blinds whilst the accompanying family bathroom is wildly contemporary in design yet it pauses to take gentle nods to the home's past.
The primary suite offers plush carpeting, a walk-in-robe, an equally impressive bathroom with the added benefit of doors to the outside and easy access to the delightfully private outdoor bath. There's an externally accessed study which is currently used as sleeping space for those extra guests and at the other end of the property there's a new internally accessed double garage with dual doors that allow vehicles to enter the rear garden. Under the deck lies copious storage space which is perfect for a trailer, kayaks or extra summer toys and if time is your enemy, the section is extremely easy-care, well fenced and beautifully presented with plenty of space for pets and children. Replumbed, rewired, and insulated to a high standard in order to meet the exacting expectations of the current owners, this property is a veritable showcase of style, substance and sincerity - a true reflection of what has been a thoughtful and thorough renovation.
Zoned for Hilltop School and only a short walk to the lakefront, restaurants and the town centre, this home will be perfect for young families chasing style and convenience, couples looking for easy living and those seeking a holiday home with the previous occasional rental income ranging between $350-$700 per night.
Whatever your calling, Zane is here to show you through and to talk more about all the features and benefits of this outstanding property that can't be spoken about here.
This home is out-of-the-box and a viewing is a must!
