70 Maungakawa Road, Cambridge, Waipa

There's something rather special about a country home with a story to tell. The beautiful wooden floors, original features, inviting window seats and all those little details that give a home its character. This is a home with history, heart and plenty of personality.

70 Maungakawa Road is a property where you can enjoy the best of country living, just five minutes from the heart of Cambridge. In an elevated position, the rural views are stunning and vast.

This charming four-bedroom home offers relaxed family living with plenty of room to spread out, both inside and out.

At the heart of the home is a beautiful new country kitchen, thoughtfully crafted by local kitchen makers. It's a wonderful addition that sits comfortably alongside the home's original character, bringing together old-world charm and modern-day practicality.

Outside, there's even more to love. A swimming pool for those long summer afternoons, paddocks for a few sheep, perhaps some chickens scratching around, and space for the whole family to enjoy a little taste of the good life.

Adding another dimension is a standalone one-bedroom Airbnb, offering flexibility for guests, extended family or an additional income stream.

And then there's the location. Maungakawa Village is a wonderful rural community, where neighbours know neighbours and country living comes with a real sense of belonging. Yet Cambridge, with its cafes, shops, amenities and excellent schooling options, is only a few minutes down the road.

There's also an opportunity here to add your own touches over time, to build on the character and charm that's already so evident and make this lovely property truly your own.

A little bit of country, a whole lot of character and a lifestyle that's becoming increasingly hard to find.
