Live in absolute privacy and seclusion on this elevated north facing property with a rural outlook beyond landscaped gardens which showcase the four seasons.
This is a beautifully set up rural life style block with good grazing and a recently upgraded home in large country grounds sheltered by native trees.
Horticultural expertise and time have created a kaleidoscope of trees, shrubs and intensive plantings in the country garden. It incorporates the stand of native trees which backdrops and shelters the home. It's a warm and sunny environment above the spray zone and below the bush line where rhododendrons, azaleas and lemon trees thrive and the bush attracts bird life.
There is ample well supported grazing to run stock or have horses, with paddocks in front of and behind the home grounds, and one along the side dotted with mature blackwood trees. You can grow your own hay, around 150 bales per annum. There's easy access round the land and a separate road entrance to the yards beside an old barn (part of an historic sawmill), and to a much newer three bay shed with a workshop, studio or office at one end.
The split level home with expansive glazing, ample sliding doors to decks and cathedral ceilings has been recently re-roofed, renovated, and painted in light attracting neutrals. This amplifies the brightness of the interior and the way it connects with the gardens. The levels nicely delineate zones for family life, freshly installed insulation and a wood burner keep you cosy.
Appreciate the peace and enjoy the local country community with Oropi School and hall three minutes down the road, the bush walks of the Otanewainuku Forest and to Whataroa Falls just up the road and urban amenities within approximately 20 minutes.
