3 Janelle Place RANGIORA, Waimakariri District

You have to view this home to really appreciate what it has to offer.

Solidly built, the indoor-outdoor floor plan and design statements of this north facing home make it stand out from the crowd.

Open the wide entrance door to reveal a vast slate tiled foyer, perfect for highlighting special pieces of art or furniture.

The feeling of space is enhanced by the double door access through to the formal lounge. The cathedral ceilings and chandeliers in all of the living areas add dramatic interest and increase the sense of space. Leading on from the lounge is the sun room. A small retreat to retire and read a book or to reflect. These rooms both open out to the outdoor gardens and are positioned perfectly for maximum sunlight.

Adjacent to the lounge is the generous family / dining area. This is a double aspect room with two ranch sliders which opens out to the paved patio and BBQ area overlooking the securely enclosed backyard and gardens. This room opens to the kitchen which has original cupboards and bench tops and a wonderful large walk in pantry. The stepped up bench between the kitchen and family room is perfect for hiding what is happening in the kitchen from guests!

The three double bedrooms and one single bedroom all have either ranch slider or door access to outside and face north. The master has a walk in wardrobe and off suite access to the bathroom. There is a separate office complete with shelving and internet connection.

The bathroom has been updated to include a wet shower enabling wheelchair access. The house has two separate toilets (one at the bedroom end of the home, the other by the living areas with basin). There is also a separate laundry with excellent storage leading out to the easterly facing washing line.

The double garage is internal access and has an automatic garage door opener (plus off street parking).

Heating is provided via a floor mounted heat pump in the lounge and a panel heater in the family room. The water is heated via electricity and solar paneling with a DVS system throughout making for a warm and dry home all year round.

The 809sqm section has a large lawned area and wrap around gardens. This is complimented by several pockets of smaller garden areas, a vege patch on the east side and lots of edible delights for children and grandchildren..
