Description
Located in the ever-popular Flagstaff, this immaculately presented 2012-built brick home is one of those properties that simply works, generous in scale, social by design and thoughtfully laid out for large families, multi-generational living or those who simply love to entertain. Steel framed and double glazed throughout, spanning 285sqm on a 787sqm section, the space and quality on offer here is exceptional. A welcoming entry draws you through to the heart of the home where the spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas come together in impressive fashion. The living area is a genuine showstopper, featuring a raked scissor-truss ceiling with floor-to-ceiling glass that floods the space with light and creates a real sense of occasion. Oriented to make the most of the sun, the living areas flow seamlessly out to a north-facing outdoor entertaining area, perfectly positioned to catch generous sun throughout the day. The modern kitchen is well-appointed for entertaining, centred around a granite island bench with a walk-in pantry providing excellent storage and bench space. Plumbing for a fridge adds a practical touch, keeping the kitchen functional as well as beautiful. A spacious separate lounge offers a quieter space to retreat when the main living areas are in full social swing. Five generously sized bedrooms are complemented by a dedicated office, ideal for those working from home or needing a study space. The master suite
features a well-sized walk-in wardrobe and a tiled ensuite. A second bathroom and separate toilet serve the rest of the household, along with a separate laundry to keep everyday life running smoothly. Three heat pumps ensure year-round comfort throughout the home, while security cameras and a burglar alarm provide peace of mind. The interior was freshly repainted in 2025, meaning the hard work has already been done. An internal-access double garage and generous off-street parking cater well for larger households. Outside, the 787sqm section offers plenty of room for kids, pets and outdoor entertaining to go hand in hand. The
location is a natural fit for families, sitting within the Endeavour School zone and close to Flagstaff’s parks, shops and everyday amenities. Everything you need, right on your doorstep. Immaculate, spacious and ready to enjoy, this is a home that delivers on every level. Download and view the property files at https://www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/CE22862

Next steps for moving to New Zealand
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
