Greener Pastures

An escape to the city's tranquil western fringe doesn't have to entail a life of solitude; the best of both worlds is more than possible, it's available now in the quiet of this countrified lifestyle.

This inspired home is an architect in and of itself, in the sense that it creates an idyllic family environment with space to breathe and an all-seasonal platform to entertain proudly.

Behind the gates, the welcoming home sits sunnily elevated over its 2,676m2 and rural views; given the serene outlooks and sweet country air, minus the hard farm labour, it's a digestible tonic.

Inside, the spaces are thoughtfully formatted to reflect and engage the great outdoors. Open modern living combines the country-styled kitchen, dining and lounge that can transition any special occasion to the deck that views the manicured grounds, treetops, and distant pastures. Whether you gather under the soaring gabled ceiling of the living room or the shade of the pergola, each generous space is spectacular.

The room configuration fosters privacy and flexibility for a growing family or down-sizers with three bedrooms, two gorgeous bathrooms and one nifty study.

Internal access double garaging is a whopping winner, much like the ample storage.

With native birdlife as your soundtrack, the gardens are a place to collect your thoughts, take sanctuary and let free-range chickens and kiwi-kids range far and free. Or why not become self-sufficient. Now there's a healthy thought.

Only moments from Waitakere Train Station, surrounded by a close-knit community, and within reach of Henderson, Westgate, the coast and city - don't wait for someone else to call this dream theirs when it ought to be yours.
