Rosebank

As you approach "Rosebank" from the south the road runs parallel to the farm and your eye is immediately drawn to the terraced river flats on your right and beyond to the farm buildings and across the river to the mature pine forest. On entering the farm there is a branch to the left leading to the farm cottage, the main drive is a tree lined avenue leading to the stunning main home with the imposing gate house. The homestead is situated below the natural escarpment between the terraces which make up the bulk of the farm. Beautifully sited with views over the lower river terraces to the Taweru River and native bush, the home is sheltered but well placed to capture all day sun.

Designed by the vendors' mother this amazing home was completed in 2003. Beautifully proportioned, you approach via an avenue of established trees. This home is situated on escarpment between the two terraces which are the bulk of the farm. The outlook is across the bottom terrace to native trees and the river boundary. The home consists of four bedrooms, four bathrooms, office/fifth bedroom, a formal drawing room, family room, dining room, farm style kitchen with an Aga (gas) an electric oven, leads through to the utility room and the wonderful swimming pool. Two garages, pump room and the gate house complete the picture.
Beyond the gate house is a substantial shed for mowers, tools etc.

The cottage shares the entrance with the main drive and immediately veers off to the left to its own private location. Again the cottage has wonderful views over the farm.

A beautiful property with fertile flats and excellent facilities this farm has a huge appeal as a finishing, cropping farm with a forest ready to harvest with the ability to operate as a Bed and Breakfast - a unique opportunity.
