Live the good life in a country community

Move to the country here and become part of a caring community where children can walk along the road to school and you can choose to participate in local events and make friends. Love the outlook over countryside to the coast and enjoy your proximity to the Kaimai ranges and to the city and the sea. Move into this attractive bungalow and relish the positive effects of a complete exterior upgrade of the rimu weatherboard cladding, new aluminium framed double glazing in sympathy with the style and full insulation enhanced by all day sun and an efficient solid fuel burner. Appreciate the original interior features with scope for some decor titivating if desired. Have up to four bedrooms plus extra storage in two outhouses by the covered entrance. The kitchen is large enough for a dining table and the lounge surprisingly spacious. Be toasty warm inside and soak up sun and views from the deck overlooking your gently sloping 9429m2 (nearly a hectare). Your water comes from a 25,000 litre rainwater tank tucked neatly behind the house. There's an eclectic mix of opportunity here with cloth sheltering a horticultural strip which has successfully grown protea and strawberries. Retaining the large greenhouse here is negotiable. There is a shed at the bottom of the paddock for storage and animal shelter. Harvest a veritable fruit salad from the home orchard and nurture seedlings in the compact greenhouse by the vegetable garden. All very appealing and you could make it even more so. A huge parking area has space for adding garaging. A very inviting and attainable country life.\n
