9 Kinmont Rise Dannemora, Manukau City

We have an acceptable pre-auction offer, auction now brought forward to this Thursday 14th Feb, 6pm at Ray White Howick office (12 Uxbridge Road, Howick).

This large, luxury, single-level executive home in a quiet right-of-way, off a cul-de-sac, is right next door to the Auckland urban boundary with glorious rural views.

Built by a builder for himself and his family in 2007, highest-quality materials like the solid concrete exterior were used throughout this property.

A smart front door opens to an enormous combined kitchen, family dining and living space with a magnificent feature gas fireplace. An adjacent, al fresco dining room is ideal for entertaining.

The cool and contemporary chef's kitchen has recently-upgraded appliances, lots of bench space and storage - plus a bar with fridge.

Currently configured as four bedrooms plus study, the house could be five bedrooms if desired. The bedroom wing with its attractive, central, leafy courtyard comprises three generous double bedrooms and a spacious, elegant family bathroom - plus separate powder room. The huge master suite has a double-vanity ensuite and amazing wardrobe.

The dcor throughout the house is relaxing, modern and tasteful and there's two-zone gas central heating, quality floor coverings, separate laundry and a central vacuum system.

Extensive attic space reached via the triple garage has a floor, so items can be hidden away.

There's additional car parking or parking for a boat or caravan with automatic-gated entrance. The section is beautifully landscaped, with subtropical plants. There's decking around the pool and plenty of room for children to play.

The current owners have loved being close to Botany Town Centre, excellent schools, the motorway and the airport. They're selling reluctantly, due to a transfer, as they had always regarded it as their forever' home.
