Brilliantly composed for a variety of experiences, this central property has family at its heart. With multiple living spaces, four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a separate, fully equipped studio apartment, a separate office or utility room, plus a heated inground pool, no one is left wanting. Tucked down a driveway, this private oasis nestles in a charming garden wonderland close to the CBD, river walks and Woodstock School. The home has exceptional indoor-outdoor flow through multiple French doors onto decks overlooking the pool and gardens. Architecture and landscape are ultra-compatible, and the home's detailed interior is a rich composition of character and contemporary elements. Socially adept living spaces and casual and formal dining areas make entertaining a breeze and give a family ample break-out space. There is generous storage throughout, including the laundry, a study, and a well-equipped kitchen where cooks can keep an eye on things. The bedroom wing has a lounge and two generous bedrooms with tiled ensuites. Attached to the triple carport is a self-contained flat that caters to guests, extended family, or private accommodation. The separate garden office is the ideal work-from-home base or artist's studio. Hard to replicate, this family retreat delivers comfort, seclusion, superb versatility, and a lovely ambience in the midst of the city. Woodstock School is at one end of the street and Boundary Road and bridge are at the other. Phone Terry on 021 909 978 for viewing times. www.terryryan.co.nz/11-casey-avenue/
