17 Henry Bell Close, Cambridge, Waipa, Waikato, 3432, New Zealand

This high-spec home celebrates beauty, function, and a love of the outdoors. It is incredibly in tune with alfresco living, soaking up the north sun, and basks in peace and privacy. Cocooned off a cul-de-sac in prestigious Cambridge Park, an easy-care, double-glazed brick home reclines on 960m2 of immaculate landscaping. An exemplar of relaxed, contemporary living, the spacious home encompasses four generous bedrooms, two fully tiled bathrooms, and opens out to huge composite decking. Quality reigns supreme. Surround sound enhances the mood of the open-plan family zone, media room, and outdoor pavilion. Bird song adds sweet notes from dawn to dusk. The custom-built kitchen is a foodie’s haven, perfectly positioned for indoor and outdoor entertaining. It features Hettich cabinetry, a whopping 900mm oven and cooktop, integrated appliances, an island bench, stone counters, and a servery window. A family can kick back in the borderless living area, enjoy movie nights in the lounge, chillax under the all-weather patio or throw big parties. The large, well-appointed master suite has ranch slider access onto the deck and a spa pool set in the backyard. Wash off apres-spa under the shower dumper in the tiled, walk-in shower, and dress in the customised walk-in wardrobe, which has shelving and drawers galore. Fully fitted wardrobes feature in all bedrooms. Storage is ample indoors and outside, including the powder room, the fitted laundry, and a carpeted double garage. All exceed the standard size. The 7m x 6m garage has shelving and work benches. Year-round comfort is given thanks to ducted Daikin air-conditioning. TVs and spa remain. Established trees grace the area which has the air of an English village. Nearby Cambridge Town Belt is a great place to walk the dog and Circus Eatery is a popular spot for a coffee.
