And The Gables House belongs unmistakably here. Architecturally inspired and newly built, this residence offers the rare opportunity to move straight into a thoughtfully completed home without the fatigue of building or the compromises that often follow Positioned on one of Trentham's most tightly held streets and within walking distance of the village, this is country living refined: calm, connected, and confidently resolved. Externally, the home presents as a contemporary interpretation of classic country form gabled rooflines, crisp white cladding, and black-framed windows that sit comfortably within Trentham's established streetscape. At a Glance Architect-designed, brand-new residence Three bedrooms, two ensuites Three-metre ceilings throughout Three-sided wood fireplace Purpose-built storage integrated throughout Walking distance to Trentham village Space That Breathes From the moment you enter, the scale of the home is immediately felt. Three-metre ceilings create openness without echo, while carefully proportioned rooms and soft natural light give the house a sense of ease rather than excess. Colonial-style arched windows frame greenery and sky, allowing light to move freely while maintaining privacy. Storage is deliberately architectural including a purpose-built walk-in linen and integrated cabinetry keeping spaces visually calm and uncluttered. Every room feels intentional. Nothing feels overworked. Living, Centred Around Warmth At the heart of the home, the main living space is anchored by a striking three-sided wood fireplace. Positioned to be enjoyed from multiple angles, it brings warmth and presence without interrupting sightlines or flow. Engineered timber floors ground the space, while French doors open north to a tiled gazebo an outdoor room designed for long lunches, slow evenings, and easy entertaining. A deep window seat is built seamlessly into the architecture, with discreet storage beneath a quiet pause point for reading, conversation, or simply watching the light change through the trees. Entertaining and Retreat, Naturally Balanced A generous rumpus room extends from the main living zone, offering flexibility without separation. Thoughtfully integrated storage and custom drawer systems allow the space to adapt whether hosting family, accommodating guests, or settling into quieter daily rhythms. This is a home designed around real life, not staged moments. Bedrooms That Feel Private, Not Peripheral Three generously sized bedrooms are thoughtfully zoned to provide privacy and separation from the main living areas. Two include private ensuites and walk-in robes, while all are finished with soft New Zealand wool carpets for warmth underfoot and acoustic comfort. The master suite is anchored by a beautifully resolved walk-in robe featuring custom joinery, extensive drawer storage, and integrated lighting practical, refined, and designed for long-term living rather than display. A Kitchen Defined by Architecture The kitchen is both sophisticated and purposeful, framed by a generous architectural arch that gives it presence without enclosure. The island reads as a freestanding piece of furniture rather than joinery, anchoring the space visually and practically. Features include: Induction cooktop Premium German appliances Built-in speed oven with integrated microwave Fully integrated dishwasher Suspended cabinetry for a lighter, architectural feel Natural stone benchtops that bring softness and depth Behind the main kitchen, a walk-in pantry with three metres of full-height cabinetry functions as a working kitchen in its own right offering substantial storage, preparation space, and the quiet pleasure of order. Materials and finishes have been selected for durability and ease of maintenance, ensuring the kitchen remains as practical as it is refined over time. Bathrooms Designed for Calm Bathrooms are restrained and tactile, finished with natural stone, textured tiles, and carefully considered joinery. The freestanding bath is positioned to capture light and outlook, creating spaces that feel restorative rather than indulgent. Each bathroom reflects the same design language as the rest of the home quiet, resolved, and enduring. Comfort, Without Visual Noise Discreet air-conditioning provides gentle heating and cooling throughout the home, offering year-round comfort at the touch of a button. On colder nights, the wood fire becomes the centre of the house not for show, but for use. A place to sit, talk, laugh, and spend unhurried time together, with warmth that feels human rather than mechanical. A Garage That Matches the Home The three-car garage is finished with a clean epoxy floor, creating a refined and durable space suitable for vehicles, storage, or hobbies. Alternatively, it may be configured as a double garage with a generous studio already built and simply awaiting your preference.
