Miro Road, Raumati South, Wellington

The overwhelming feature of this outstanding, owner-designed home is space. Even the smallest of the four bedrooms in this handsome, two-storey cedar board and baton 'big box' is super-sized, and that's putting it mildly.

Even so, it stands unassumingly on a private and secure rear section at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, overlooking Matthews Park, in a prime position for all-day sun and wraparound views of Kapiti Island and the Maungakotukutuku hills.

Built to the current owners' plans back in the 80s, one thing that hasn't changed in all that time is the possibilities this home brings. It could be a memorable home for a growing family or a haven for a household of mixed generations and relations - the space here means there's privacy for everyone.

The gardens wrap around the house, with lawns, vegetable patches, fruit trees, and sheds to suit every outdoor pursuit, as well as room left over to park cars, trucks, boats, and trailers.

That feeling of freedom continues from the first steps inside through the double-height hallway with an open staircase. Both the downstairs and upstairs stories are laid out in the most generous format. 

The star of the ground floor is an enormous central room that could serve as the ultimate home cinema and entertainment space - on its own it's easily as big as the combined lounge and dining room in any typical house. Here at Miro, it's simply one of the special spaces to explore.

Upstairs, the equivalent space has been given to the master wing, with a cavernous walk-in robe, and a connecting room that could be anything from a nursery to a private sitting room and access to a super spacious bathroom. 

It's a home to get lost in with your imagination,  this place has the space, flooded with natural light, high ceilings, and smart, modern fixtures and fittings.
