Such a wonderful opportunity! Your chance to own an inviting property loved by one owner since the early 80's. This three bedroom, two bathroom home with two living areas was originally built as the Furze Lockwood Showhome in 1978. A log burner, two heat pumps and partial double glazing ensures cosy living in the cooler months. The area has been recently re-zoned as Lifestyle Zone A so offers potential for future subdivision if wanted, however as it is, the 1.16 ha site offers peaceful country living (only approx. 5 mins from Central New Plymouth) with space for the childrens pony or other grazing animals. The flat paddocks are ideal for developing an orchard and food growing plus plenty of space for your hens. The proximity to local shops, cycling and walking tracks, schools for your children and bus stop close by, make this a top location for easy living. Step onto the deck in the morning with a coffee in hand, and you might find yourself being charmed by a curious Piwakawaka flitting through the branches or being serenaded by one of the many Tui. The serenity of a Lockwood design is always appealing and pairing that with the private seclusion this property offers you will not want to leave. This isn't just a house... it's a retreat for you and your family. A place for your family to thrive.
