Maison du Soliel

58 Miles Lane, Tauriko

Nestled into a prime position above the Wairoa River Valley on desirable Miles Lane, this central lifestyle position in Tauriko is one of Tauranga’s most sought after.

Designed by Ambienti with all the timeless style of the French Riviera, and built by highly regarded Murray Pederson Builders, the majority in concrete block. With its guest house, two storeys and split level layout embracing a central outdoor living area, and a Mark Cashmore designed pool, this property would have to rank amongst the most unique and ideal of family homes in the region.

Having envisioned a long-term family home, its owners have expertly and extensively updated the property over their 5 years of ownership. Now, a calling from out of the region creates an unexpected opportunity for a fortunate other.

    CAR GARAGING

DOWNLOAD INFO PACK

A long, mostly private driveway enjoys rural and river views as it accesses the private, elevated house site. It passes the house’s garage and entryway and continues to its hidden termination adjacent to two large sheds and a concrete hardpad.

The generous two car internal garaging sits on the driveway level and provides direct access to the first floor and the lift servicing the ground floor. The front door entry descends wide steps, with peep through to the outdoor living area, to a covered entry.

The arrivals foyer is operatic, with its curving stairwell and wrought iron banister leading up to the balcony like hallway to the family accommodation. The space is vast and impressive but entirely welcoming.

Off the foyer is a clever and spacious home office arrangement. Two wide but short sets of stairs passes the purpose designed and fully fitted cinema to reach the kitchen, dining, and living area, and another set descends a short distance to the master suite entry and a separate lounge area. The split level arrangement is captivating. A larger designer laundry with masses of storage and a mudroom entry sits on the garaging side of the foyer on the ground floor.

The master suite is very well proportioned. With its on-trend ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and private patio, it enjoys the rural and river views available from much of the home.

Two large double bedrooms and one single bedroom are positioned around a shared bathroom on the first floor. The larger bedrooms benefit from a connection to a large balcony, greatly increasing the appeal of these rooms for use other than just sleeping. 

A gorgeous designer kitchen, recently designed/manufactured by Jane Hawksworth/Kitchen & Interior Co., oozes quality and is as functional as it is beautiful; the centrepiece of the living area. Open to dining and living areas, this “heart of the home” connects to 3 patio spaces, including the pool area, and a covered walkway to the poolside studio bedroom and games room.

The pool area is a sheltered suntrap, with its heated pool, patio and elevated deck spaces, it’s as unique as the home itself. The associated poolside studio bedroom provides very independent stays and longer-term accommodation for friends and family. A bathroom sits between this and another larger room with bifolds onto the poolside deck; this room was designed as a games room but could equally provide another living area, a 6th bedroom, another office or perhaps has its best use case as a gymnasium. 

The landscaping around the home site is mature, informal and easy care. The title is considerable and includes a significant amount of land below the home but above the river valley floodplain; future subdivision potential exists here, as do endless lifestyle possibilities which could include home food production, horses or grazing.
