8 Richards Street, Cambridge, Waipa

Uniquely private, refined living

This sophisticated home sitting pretty in an elevated position on one of Cambridge's newer streets has been crafted for those who appreciate quality without the need to announce it.
Boasting stone benchtops, Bosch appliances, induction cooktop and a big locked off scullery with its own second oven, entertaining is easy rather than impressive for the sake of it. Flowing beautifully off the kitchen/dining hub is a gorgeous courtyard complete with a custom-built outdoor fireplace that makes for a convivial space. Here, conversations will linger long into the night beside the roaring fire. Overlooking the private, established leafy garden, it is a special spot in itself.
On either side of the kitchen/dining, two distinctly different living spaces offer their own atmosphere. The vaulted ceiling in the lounge adds a sense of grandeur without sacrificing warmth, thanks to an Escea gas fireplace which becomes a natural gathering point in the cooler months. Heat pumps service both living areas, with the second sunny lounge enjoying an easy connection to the garden.
The master suite is tucked away at the end of the home- beautifully appointed, with a walk- through wardrobe leading to a tiled, heated underfloor ensuite finished with a frameless glass shower. Three further double bedrooms with large wardrobes cater for the whole family without compromising comfort. The spacious family bathroom also has underfloor heating and a luxurious deep bath,
This home quietly steals the show with established landscaping that represents a truly green sanctuary, softening every outlook and bringing a sense of calm that's often missing from modern subdivisions. Pets and children will be at home here, this property is fully fenced for piece of mind!
Perhaps the greatest luxury here is balance. A home that feels wonderfully secluded, yet sits within walking distance of local cafés, shops and everyday conveniences. In zone for the ever-popular Goodwood School, Cambridge East, Middle and High School it is also close to the cycleway for morning walks or evening rides, and is also well positioned for commuting to Hamilton just 23 kilometres away.
Every finish, every material, every space is refined in this understated and inviting home. Take the first step to making it yours, and view today!
