Embodying the essence of contemporary elegance, I l l u m i n a n c e is a home where modern design meets timeless comfort. A haven of natural light, refined finishes, and effortless flow. Positioned within the popular Waipahihi School Zone, this Penny Homes creation captures the very best of Taupo's relaxed lifestyle, offering easy access to the lakefront, Kokomea Village, and scenic walkways.

The residence's bright, pared-back palette and architectural simplicity set a serene tone. The design celebrates light and space, with 2.55m stud ceilings enhancing volume and openness throughout the 178sqm (more or less) floor plan. A thoughtful single-level layout ensures seamless connection across all living spaces, catering effortlessly to both quiet family moments and hosting with ease.

Anchoring the home is a beautifully appointed designer kitchen, featuring a full scullery (with sink), generous bench space, and fluid connection to the dining and living areas. A feature gas fire brings warmth and sophistication, with double glazing and a heat pump delivering efficient all-season comfort.

Accommodation includes three double bedrooms, each with thoughtful inclusions such as USB outlets and TV connection points, while the spacious master suite enjoys privacy, a stunning tiled ensuite with wet shower, and a peaceful outlook. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed, also with a tiled wet shower, mirror demisters, and under-vanity lighting adding subtle luxury.

For those working from home, a dedicated office with a barn-style door provides a stylish, functional retreat that can be discreetly closed off when entertaining.

Smart design extends beyond the interior with a keyless entry system, integrated with home security, Coloursteel roofing, weatherboard cladding and cedar accents reflecting both durability and modern convenience. The residence is positioned on a fully fenced 507sqm (more or less) corner section, offering privacy and security while creating a safe, versatile space for children and pets to play freely. Gates provide convenient access, and the outdoor area is designed for low-maintenance enjoyment, whether for family activities or private enjoyment. Practicality is further enhanced by off-street parking alongside the double internal-access garage, making this home as functional as it is stylish.

Close to local reserves, playgrounds, cafés, and boat ramps, this home embodies the style, comfort, and convenience that define contemporary Taupo living. Whether life is calling for low-maintenance luxury, family-friendly connection, or single-level serenity, I l lu m i n a n c e brings it all together in one irresistible package.
