Located 20 minutes west of Whangarei in a beautiful volcanic landscape, this carefully developed 3.84 hectare lifestyle block welcomes you to a secluded country environment. There are seven grazing paddocks, four orchards plus a walnut grove, a charming hayshed with a 40+ bale hayloft and stalls for young animals, a hothouse, woodshed, chook house, loading pens and more. Ample water store for drought years and for irrigating the scores of producing fruit and nut trees.
The 5-year old executive home is built to last with solid filled, steel-reinforced concrete block, rendered adobe style. This well-insulated home has a passive solar design – cheery in winter and cool in the summer! The hot water on demand with 3 propane gas califonts is very economical and energy efficient. The entire exterior has been recently repainted.
Terracotta floor tiles throughout, warm neutral tones, with totara wood trim enhance the ambience. The 80 m2 master bedroom wing includes another living area and a large ensuite with a corner bath and double sinks. The guest wing has two 25 m2 bedrooms with ensuites, a laundry with room for a chest freezer, extra frig and pantry. There are large walk-in closets in all the bedrooms. The 12 m2 kitchen is a cook’s dream with a DeLongi 5-burner large oven, DeLongi dishwasher, pantry, custom-made breakfast bar, and like every room in the house, a panoramic view of the Weke Valley and Tangihua ranges. A guest powder room is off of the kitchen.
The detached 3 bay (72 m2) garage is just a year old with the same construction as the house and includes a toilet with sink, a large work area with sink and bench for fruit & veggie processing, and more storage space! The 300 m2 concrete turn-around includes a nice shady level area – room for the boat, a basketball court or your choice!
