Town meets country

A big home in big grounds, above a big paddock right on the edge of Te Puke. Whether you feel you live in town or in the country depends on your perspective as this property offers you the best of both worlds.

If you want to be able to pop into Te Puke by car, by bike or stroll by foot you live in town. If you value primary school proximity with Fairhaven Primary School across the valley and intermediate and high schools close you are urban dwellers.

If you love the freedom of space and the ability to run a few stock - calves, goats, sheep, a pony or two - the large paddock of the 1.9300 ha property, which spreads out below the home grounds, will appeal to your rural side.

Either way, it may be the spacious, well designed, beautifully built family home on its large flat site that wins you over. Built by award winning Harwood Homes, the dwelling exudes space and relaxed grace, from the generous foyer to linked lounge and open plan living facing party sized covered patio to good sized bedrooms, recently upgraded bathrooms, big private, master suite and farm sized laundry.

Children will spend hours tearing about the lawns or on their purpose-built playground. Blokes will retreat purposefully to a separate shed in the corner, so well matching the home in style it's good looks could see it used as a studio or for accommodation.

This property is in an enclave of high quality lifestyle properties on the edge of Te Puke, the access road scooping through a pretty valley and around the paddock then up to the home and grounds. The site is elevated and sunny, the house facing north. Try this for a rural life without leaving town.
