Character Country Cottage


This fabulous character country homestead with its many delightful
original features is set within a landscaped garden with plenty of
family and farm friendly extras! From the moment you pull up the
driveway the pretty garden path and enchanting atmosphere of this
yesteryear homestead welcomes you to come inside and explore.
The
undercover veranda and porch area provides a protected entrance for
family and guests entering the house, once inside the rich tongue
in grove timber floorboards capture your attention and lead you
through to the warm and inviting living areas. One with a practical
built in wood burner, the other cosy winter lounge retreat with an
open fire, both with traditional fire surrounds still intact offer
warm and relaxing family living. The dining area extends in a large
'L' shape from the fabulous country style kitchen with its glowing
timber bench, butlers sink, large stainless steel freestanding
cooker and period fittings around to French doors leading to the
undercover veranda and extensive deck offering excellent indoor
outdoor flow and alfresco dining and entertaining options in all
weathers.
Three good sized bedrooms, the master with ensuite and
good sized family bathroom a separate study and laundry room
complete the home.
Immediately adjacent to the house sits a
'sleepout' or separate 'office' with lean-to shedding offering
ideal work from home or teenage retreat opportunities. The
homestead is set within an old but well structured landscaped
garden, with a swimming pool, offering plenty of space for the
children and pets to play, and adults to relax in. Plenty of fruit
trees, a vegetable garden area and a huge chicken run, make it
quite possible to provide much of your own fresh produce on site.

The surrounding lush 10.04ha divided into several easily
manageable paddocks is flat to gently contoured and north facing
offering excellent grazing for sheep, cattle or horses. Each
paddock has a stock trough and water is supplied form the stream,
dams or ample bore on the property. The property is part of the
original dairy farm and there are various sheds and barns,
stockyards, and even the old milking shed, the property enjoys a
long road frontage, extending from Weranui Road, over the bridge
and along Upper Waiwera for several hundred metres, with three
separate entrances. This property is conveniently located in the
Wainui Valley, only six minutes to the motorway on-ramp, and 10
minutes to Silverdale and Orewa schools, shops, cafes, beaches,
recreational amenities, and only 40 minutes to Auckland City.
All
in all this is a very pretty property with oodles of charm and
plenty potential for further development, offering the opportunity
of an enviable country lifestyle for the small holding farmer or
family looking to escape the city and suburban madness to come and
enjoy.
