If you've been dreaming of a bit more space, a slower pace and kids coming in at night happy, muddy and exhausted - this might just be the one! Set on 1.19ha (2.94 acres) of elevated lifestyle goodness, this north-facing, three bedroom, two bathroom family home has all the key ingredients for life on the land. Leave the muddy boots in the mudroom just inside the back door, complete with adjoining bathroom, and step into spacious living centred around a striking, country style modern kitchen with combined dining and two separate living spaces. Double glazed aluminium joinery, two wood burners and a heat transfer system keep the home cosy, warm and inviting when there's snow capping the nearby Ruahines along with solar power system with excess fed back to the grid. Slide open the doors from both living spaces to the covered outdoor entertaining area complete with outdoor bar, or relax on the wraparound deck admiring the sensational views over farmland towards the ranges while the kids disappear off climbing trees, ripping it up on bikes, building forts or tending to the pets. And speaking of animals - there's room here for the whole lifestyle starter pack! Five paddocks (one deer fenced), stock yards, loads of shedding including a three bay implement shed, large workshop, a greenhouse, young fruit trees and excellent fencing meaning lots of the hard graft has already been done. Just add a few pet lambs, a calf or maybe finally say yes to that pony request you've been avoiding! There's even an outdoor cabin and studio room tucked behind the double garage - ideal for hobbies, working from home, teenagers and their mates who seem to never leave! Sheltered to the west by an established shelter belt and well located just five minutes from Takapau, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds with schools, sports clubs, golf course, health centre and everyday essentials all close at hand. This is family-centric lifestyle living done well!
