2 Gainsford Road Rukuhia, Waikato

The crunch of your tyres as you pull into your double garage at this calm country oasis after a day in the city will prompt the kids to jump off the swing, scamper round from playing in the back yard to welcome you home. Settle in on the porch with a cold one to relax and admire your stunning panoramas - something our motivated vendors have done on countless occasions.

This sprawling three/four bedroom, two bathroom family home epitomises the pride and practicality that comes from owning a Lockwood style home - eco-smart and designed for good. Presenting a generous 205m² (approx.) so that everyone has their private place to retreat to, the natural vibe and modern open layout encourages party plans for the summer and all family routines. The ground floor offers a double-height living room overlooked by a practical mezzanine lounge for the kids. Doors lead to the deck - just the spot for Saturday morning's eggs bennie. The upper level features beautiful raked timber ceilings and walls - cool in summer and cosy in winter. The master bedroom is a peaceful place with a chic ensuite and delightful garden outlook - a botanical wonderland and pretty as a picture.

Located 15 minutes from the city centre you're also handy for Waikato Hospital, university, and the airport. In this disposable man-made world, it's good to know you and your family will be enveloped in something real, tangible and natural in a garden landscape that embodies those same qualities.
