8 Redwood Court, Kelvin Peninsula, Queenstown-Lakes, Otago, 9300, New Zealand
This extensively renovated home, tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac and backing onto reserve, is definitely something special. Abundant northerly sunshine, dramatic views to Skyline and Ben Lomond, and a quality fit-out make this property a real gem in a very desirable Kelvin Heights location.
The home has a commanding street presence, sitting above the road with the towering glass facade and backdrop of the reserve behind. The Shou Sugi Ban cladding gives the exterior a modern yet timeless feel, a motif echoed throughout the remodelling. Enter the home and the view takes over. The vaulted living room has double height windows and is a show stopper – views from the lake to the top of Ben Lomond are perfectly framed. Ranch sliders open on two sides to the front garden, ideal for summer entertaining, and a wood burner is a lovely winter’s touch. The connected kitchen and dining area is on trend with a concrete benchtop, quality appliances and butler’s sink. A stable door to the rear garden is a clever touch, opening to a fully fenced garden with plenty of room for the kids and pets, spa pool, and further access to the reserve. The bedrooms are very generous, the master with en-suite is well positioned at the far end of the house for privacy, and a family bathroom is beautifully appointed. Upstairs the fourth bedroom commands stunning lake and mountain views, or could make an ideal office space as needed. A separate laundry and further storage spaces keep things organised, and a large double garage with clever storage nooks is perfect for all the toys.
This property must be viewed to appreciate all that is on offer. From the quality of the materials to the clever use of colour, the soaring view to the everyday functionality, this home is a stand out.
