Here’s your chance to live the good life – a beautifully character-filled home set on 5.5 hectares (around 13.5 acres) with stunning rural views, loads of shedding, and the bonus of a consented building site ready to go for a second dwelling. The main house is full of charm, with four bedrooms, gorgeous high stud ceilings, and lovely exposed timber details that give it a warm, rustic feel. The open-plan dining and lounge area flows out through French doors to a big deck – perfect for soaking up the sun and taking in those incredible views across the valley and all the way to Mt Kahuranaki. The home has had some great upgrades too – brand new wool carpet throughout, a cozy new fireplace, insulation top and bottom, plus a heat transfer system to keep things toasty in winter. If you need space for projects, storage or a home business, you’re covered. The large shed has three bays with big roller doors, plus a fourth bay that’s been converted into a lined office or extra bedroom with its own toilet – and consented fireplace, with room to add more. One of the real standouts here is the resource consent and building platform already in place for a second home – and the geotech report’s done too. Whether it's for extended family, a rental, or home business, it’s a massive bonus.
