In the designer kitchen, top of the range fixtures and fittings have been installed and a spacious scullery with ample storage is included in the floor plan. Rich wood-plank floors in the kitchen and dining areas run alongside large glass windows and sliding doors to join the beautiful yet practical living room tiles. “We wanted the layout to be perfect for socialising and entertaining, whether it be dinner and drinks, or summer barbecues out on the deck with family and friends,” says Vercoe. Off the living room, down a passageway, is a spacious master bedroom with large walk-in wardrobe and two entryways to the ensuite on either side of the master bed. “The ensuite wouldn’t be amiss in a luxury resort with its double vanity, copper sinks and large dual rain shower,” says Vercoe. “Minimal, sleek and modern, this really is the perfect home in which to begin and end a busy day.” For more details, contact GJ Gardner Homes, phone 0800 42 45 46 or visit gjgardner.co.nz Facing page: Expansive living, dining and kitchen zones make this home ideal for parties and entertaining.
