Property Description

This stunning family home was designed for the current owners as a collaboration between the two award-winning firms, O'Neil Architecture and DJ Hewitt Builders. The owners’ brief was to create an exceptional contemporary home designed for easy living. Cladded in solid plaster over brick, Bretts Road was cleverly planned to deliver a luxurious standard of living in this superb location, set in a highly desirable part of Christchurch with quality homes that have stood the test of time. You are just moments from excellent amenities and an impressive selection of both private and local schools.
The layout ensures optimum living, where the divide between indoors and outdoors dissolves. Living spaces open seamlessly to a superb outdoor lounge area with wall heating and a separate dining space, both featuring automated louvred roofs. At the front of the residence, showered by the last of the afternoon sun, you’ll find the heated Compass self-cleaning in-ground salt water pool.
Timeless timber floors flow through the open-plan living area, offering both aesthetic appeal and immense practicality for everyday living and entertaining. The sitting and dining areas overlook the manicured outdoor space, while the high-spec kitchen, enhanced by overhead skylights, floods with natural light. Quality appliances are a given, and a scullery ensures the utmost practicality. Ducted heating throughout the home plus two gas fires provides year-round comfort. A formal lounge offers a cosy option, perfect for relaxing after dark.
A wall of glass continues the connection to the outdoors as you move through the home. On the ground floor, you’re greeted by a large, light-filled foyer, a powder room, a separate study, a laundry, and a second primary/guest bedroom with an en-suite and excellent storage.
On the upper level, you’ll find the luxurious primary suite, complete with a palatial en-suite, dressing room, and stunning views over the pool. Two additional bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, alongside a separate powder room and a hallway with full length storage. An internal double garage and off-street parking completes this remarkable home.
Zoned for Paparoa Street School, Heaton Intermediate, Christchurch Girls' and Boys' High Schools, and close to St Andrew's College and other private schools, this home ensures access to exceptional education. Merivale, Northlands, and the central city are just moments away.
