29B Rowe Road, Whatawhata, Waikato

Whatawhata lifestyle retreat with lake & views

This unique lifestyle property offers the perfect combination of modern design, rural tranquillity, and city convenience - all just minutes from Hamilton CBD.

Set on 1.73 hectares of rolling lawns (more or less), easy-care gardens, an established orchard, and well-fenced paddocks, the property is designed for families seeking space, style, and lifestyle flexibility. The modern home, finished in timeless Linea weatherboard with striking schist features, showcases expansive living areas and captivating countryside views framed by floor-to-ceiling windows.

The main residence offers four generous bedrooms, complemented by a large office to the side - ideal as a work-from-home base, hobby room, or recreation space. Warmth and comfort are assured with a double-sided gas fireplace and multiple heat pumps. A dedicated media room provides the perfect retreat, while the generous family kitchen - complete with walk in pantry and upmarket appliances - makes entertaining effortless. Step out onto the large north-facing deck with glass balustrading, perfect for soaking up all-day sun and the spectacular outlook.

The grounds are equally impressive: your own private lake with walking tracks, native bush, an orchard, and established landscaping create a peaceful sanctuary. For farming or lifestyle pursuits, there are well-fenced paddocks, a loading race and yards, plus utility sheds for storage and stock management. A separate shed with fully furnished self-contained living provides additional accommodation for extended family, guests, or rental income. A large double garage with rear utility space offers excellent flexibility - perfect for a home gym, workshop, or extra storage - plus there's plenty of parking for cars, a boat, or lifestyle toys. Practicality is well covered too, with ample on-site water storage supporting the home and land.

With space to add a swimming pool to fully embrace the northern views, this property still offers scope to add value. Opportunities like this are rare in the ever-popular Whatawhata area - a modern lifestyle property that truly has it all. To be sold at auction 9th October at Bayleys Hamilton.
