Historic lifestyle property
Embrace the unique charm of this 1900's farmhouse, offering a tranquil lifestyle near the white-sandy beaches and the golf courses of Te Arai and Mangawhai. Proudly positioned on the top of the rise, the homestead enjoys commanding views across the countryside. Spread across 2.6 hectares (more or less), this historic home has been lovingly maintained and expanded while preserving its original charm.
At the heart of the home lies a warm, open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, bathed in natural light from double-glazed windows that offer pastoral views, complemented by traditional leadlight features. The family room offers a cosy retreat that echoes the main area's design, with its glowing Kauri floors and sarked ceilings.
The culinary space delights with its Kauri cabinetry throughout the kitchen, complete with a black marble corner bench and an exquisite tile mural, hand-painted and sourced from an historic Armenian pottery.
Another notable feature of this property is the large master bedroom with a new ensuite bathroom and its bespoke skylight dome. The master bedroom opens onto the covered wraparound deck and the adjoining laundry.
Downstairs the floorplan unfolds into flexible living spaces, which includes a large studio with an attractive courtyard area, a family bathroom and a library room. There are two further double bedrooms on offer. The upstairs bedroom features a sunny disposition with a comfy window seat and generous storage spaces.
Outside, the landscaped gardens are a botanist's dream, flourishing with native and exotic flora that provide a year-round spectacle and a haven for a multitude of native birds. The trim-cut lawns border the fully fenced paddocks, which are all in good condition and would be ideal for a variety of livestock. A dedicated vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse, now ready for the next season's crop.
A residence not merely built, but grown with love and care, that is close to Mangawhai and Wellsford and has easy access to SH1 and Auckland.
