Enviably situated for Rototuna schools and services, this well-presented brick and linea home is in a prime spot for a family with school-aged children. Te Totara Primary and Rototuna's new Junior and Senior High schools are in walking distance.

Behind the secure entrance of your home lies an environment that encourages relaxed family living and entertaining. The nucleus comprises a spacious open plan living zone flowing out a gated courtyard and large deck, with a great play area beyond. There is plenty of space to party, indoors and out, and room for pets to range safely while you're entertaining. Your home is cleverly positioned to maximise the site.

Your formal lounge, set under a cathedral ceiling, is a warm, inviting room with a picture window and cavity sliders, allowing it to be shut off for peace and privacy. The granite kitchen is a work-friendly space with granite counters, a wall oven, generous storage and gas hob.

The guest bedroom is quietly positioned away from the family accommodation. All bedrooms are double sized, and the majority have double fitted wardrobes. The walk-in robe in the master is roomy and well-organised. Your master retreat has new block-out curtains. Curtains, drapes and railings throughout are new. Both the main bathroom and ensuite are fully tiled.

Built in 2004, your easy-living G.J. Gardner home has been tastefully refreshed and you can reap the benefits of all the upgrades. Interiors and exterior, including the fencing, have recently been repainted in a colour palette that is crisp and modern. Hot water is gas infinity, and all glazing is tinted, which is particularly welcome over summer. A Sayr home ventilation system is newly installed and a heat pump features in the family zone.

Your family-friendly neighbourhood is in strolling distance of popular Moonlight Drive Reserve and some 15 mi
