Spacious and charming
With light-filled family living/entertaining plus guest bedroom downstairs, and three roomy bedrooms upstairs, this G.J. Gardner showhome offers a relaxed lifestyle
This stand-out G.J. Gardner family home offers an impressive street presence, with clean-lined James Hardie Linea cladding and classic gabled roof forms in Metalcraft MC760 Colorsteel Endura.
The two storey, classic-look showhome is a variation on G.J.'s popular Ruapehu showhome.
The enjoyment of this showhome starts right from the welcoming entry hall.
From here, you pass the stairway – finished in hard-wearing Belgotex Delta carpet – and move into the living zone.
Two thirds of the home's ground floor is dedicated to this expansive open living/dining/kitchen space, with the balance of this level given over to a guest bedroom, one of two family bathrooms and a roomy, two-car garage.
The living room features extensive floor-to-near-ceiling glazing and large sliding doors – resulting in a light-filled, welcoming volume, its sense of space further accentuated by the lofty ceiling height.
The giant, high-end sliders, including one by the contemporary kitchen, give the home the relaxed indoor-outdoor character so integral to our New Zealand lifestyle.
Hard-wearing, stable and quiet, wood laminate flooring in Brushed Oak Natural contributes to the refined, natural vibe.
The designer kitchen in this G.J. Gardner home adds to the light, refined look, featuring traditional bright, white subway tiles in the splashback matched with pale wood and metal-look cabinetry.
The kitchen boasts a generous island with handy power points and a wealth of storage.
Smeg and Inalto appliances are in keeping with the hub-of-the-home kitchen's upmarket feel.
The generous ground floor bedroom is ideal for guests or a future-proofed bedroom for a family member who doesn't want to take the stairs.
However, the three upstairs bedrooms offer privacy and views, including the large master suite which includes a private ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.
Bedrooms are carpeted, quiet and spacious and all feature dedicated built-in wardrobe and storage.
The second family bathroom is also on this level.
With an easy demarcation between entertaining and private spaces, this attractively finished and enduring showhome offers a relaxed family lifestyle complete with a future proofing aspect afforded by a ground floor bedroom.
This design is all about making day-to-day living easy for its occupants while at the same time providing the ideal social environment for welcoming guests.
