Located off Waipapa Road, tucked down the very end of a long private driveway, this 2.65 acre property offers privacy and seclusion with the convenience of being mere minutes to either Waipapa or Kerikeri. It's a perfect place to escape, take a moment and connect with nature as the property offers an abundance of plantings including a large established organic orchard, huge variety of birds including kiwis, unique swimming hole, lilypond and the soothing sound of the river right at your doorstep. This is a place to get lost and forget the world, where if you want, you can live for days without seeing a soul.
The indoor outdoor flow is plentiful when entering the three bedroom, macrocarpa weatherboard home with large windows, skylights and many sets of French doors providing excellent vantage points to the outside beauty. The interior has a homely, country rustic feel with wooden joinery, cabinetry and terracotta floor tiles. Up the funky spiral staircase is the spacious, airy master bedroom with doors at each end and a private deck with external stairs to the outside. A perfect place to sit with a drink and watch the sun go down.
The home is off grid with solar power, gas cooking and solar/gas hot water, with a wet back off the Metro wood burner that heats the home. There is a 25,000L water tank and a commercial grade generator.
A 59sqm large open plan studio sits adjacent to the house. It has white eucalyptus floors, plenty of windows and doors and is flooded with natural light. It is currently used as a bedroom and artist studio but the possibilities here are plentiful and it could easily be made into two/three rooms.
Additional to the house and studio are two cedar sheds, a tool shed and a stand alone kitchenette/laundry.
Location is brilliant - walking distance to Waipapa, short drive to schools, Kerikeri, supermarkets, and easy access to SH 10.
Set Date of Sale brought forward to Nov 19th 12pm.
