131 Oparara Road, Karamea, Buller

Just three minutes from Karamea township on a quiet, tar-sealed road, this beautifully presented property offers the perfect blend of rural charm, comfort, and self-sufficient living. Set on 3343m2 of lovingly landscaped grounds, the property features established orchards, a bird-proof berry-growing enclosure, raised-bed vegetable gardens, a chicken run, and a small sheep-grazing paddock - everything you need to enjoy a productive, sustainable lifestyle in a tranquil rural setting. The cosy two-bedroom cottage, approaching 100 years old, has been meticulously maintained and is in excellent condition. Warm and welcoming, it features a log burner and full insulation, keeping it wonderfully comfortable through the cooler months. A large north-facing sundeck provides the perfect spot to relax or entertain, complete with a spa pool that overlooks the gardens and captures all-day sun. There's also an unconsented sleepout that offers extra space for guests, a home office, or creative studio. A workshop and potting shed provide room for tools and projects, while the garden shed and large rainwater tanks enhance the property's self-sufficient appeal. The house is to be sold fully furnished, allowing the new owners to move in and immediately enjoy everything this special property has to offer. This delightful property would ideally suit retirees, first home buyers, young families, remote workers, or anyone passionate about permaculture and sustainable living. Adding to its appeal, a part-time school bus driving position is available with the house which is offering a modest income opportunity for someone with a P-endorsed driver's licence and a police check. Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully set up for comfort, productivity, and peace of mind, this property represents a rare opportunity to secure a picturesque and productive lifestyle block just minutes from Karamea township.
