Unique, welcoming, and packed with personality
There’s something refreshingly different about this Okuku lifestyle property. Set across approximately 4 ha, just 14km from Rangiora, this distinctive American barn-inspired home combines character, comfort and genuine country living in a setting that feels wonderfully removed from the everyday life. Unique, welcoming, and packed with personality, this is country living done differently. Designed for those who want more than simply a house in a paddock, the approximately 192m² home offers three generous bedrooms, two bathrooms and relaxed open-plan living that connects beautifully with the outdoors. The entire upper level is dedicated to the master retreat, a private escape complete with ensuite, walk-in wardrobe, its own sitting area and balcony capturing beautiful mountain views. Morning coffee, evening wine or simply a quiet place to enjoy the outlook, this is a space you'll quickly claim as your own. Downstairs, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the heart of the home, with a log fire bringing warmth and atmosphere through winter whilst the north facing aspect delivers sun, sun, sun, in the warmer months. Healthy Homes compliance provides additional reassurance. Outside is where the lifestyle really comes into its own. A substantial macrocarpa deck creates the perfect setting for long lunches, summer evenings and entertaining, surrounded by established native gardens, raised vegetable beds and productive fruit trees. The 4 ha are well set up with four large paddocks and two smaller holding paddocks, good fencing, troughs and water throughout, an appealing proposition for horses, sheep, cattle or simply enjoying the freedom of having land around you. Practicality hasn't been forgotten either, with a three-bay shed, woodshed, reliable bore water supply, dog run and chicken coop area. Secure Xfence around the house yard provides additional peace of mind for children and pets. This isn't manicured country living where you're afraid to get your boots dirty. It's a property where you can bring the horses home, grow your own produce, collect the eggs, light the fire and enjoy having space to breathe. This is more than just a lifestyle block, it's a property with soul, where muddy gumboots meet modern living, horses become part of the family, and every day ends with uninterrupted mountain views. Saddle up, your next adventure starts here. Please note that some photos have been virtually staged with furniture

This lifestyle block is quite unique, offering future income from pruned macrocarpa, some of which are almost thirty years old and more recently planted eucalyptus nitens. There are large number of walnuts, eating chestnuts, hazelnuts, an established orchard of apples, black-boy peaches, quince, pears, nectarines, red and black currants, gooseberries, a Medlar tree and fig tree. You could consider establishing truffles under the large stand of English oaks and the hazelnuts. There is so much diversity here with, roses, Japanese maples, cedars, a monkey puzzle and for firewood there are plenty of eucalyptus, cedars and pine trees. The home is a 90m2, two bedroom, 1950s weatherboard bungalow, with a more modern Colorsteel roof and heating is from a log-burner connected to the cylinder with a wet-back. Being within the new size for a minor dwelling, under the proposed district plan, you could live here while you build a new home, or you could make it your sole dwelling. It would be easy to add value with some paint and imagination. The vendor has provided a building inspection report which can be assigned to the purchaser for a small fee, so you can buy with confidence. A small sleep-out with power and some support buildings can be found near the house and at the back of the property is a fully lockable three bay barn of around 80m2. Having your own well, supplying water to the house and tanks at the front is a saving in rates and the shed at the back has been set up for rainwater collection. Now that the trees are established, with minimal fencing, you could run stock over most of the property. Because the trees are at different stages they could be selectively logged, giving space for the younger trees to grow.
