Striking just the right balance between private and eye-catching, this three-bedroom, three bathroom home in Dunedin’s Maori Hill suits its site perfectly. The living areas and master bedroom reap the warming rewards of its north-facing position.
Two heatpumps and a feature wood burner, set on a raised floating hearth in rustic polished concrete, warm the home when it’s cold out. Good insulation means there’s no undue pressure on the power bill. Underfloor heating has the bathrooms and kitchen floors covered. The tiling has been executed brilliantly throughout, with impressive attention to detail. You’ll see this in the elegant kitchen’s feature splashback, which promises easy cleaning for the busy residents. Top-hung glass sliders take you through to the bedrooms, bathroom and toilet. Stairs lead to an upper sitting area and private deck overlooking the town belt. A detached garage, constructed in the same claddings and palette as the house, provides secure parking, plus room to turn the car around – no backing out onto a busy road for these folks.
