“French country” home, bountiful barn

A profitable and pleasing combination of serenely sited established home upgraded for luxurious comfort, a versatile barn incorporating accommodation, and an orchard spanning gold and green kiwifruit plus avocados.

The property is approached via an avenue like drive which arrives at ample parking between the homestead and the barn on a plateau above the orchard. Four generations of one family have nurtured this 4.6612 hectares (more or less) over the last 25 years. Upgrading the spacious 1970s home has created a “French country” ambience with multi-paned windows flooding light into the open plan living, bi fold doors to patio off the lounge and dining areas. The master suite is a private haven with superbly appointed bathroom.

The upstairs family zone has two large double bedrooms and contemporary bathroom, plus a spaciously adaptable room ideal for recreation or as an additional bedroom. There is scope to maximise the existing basement and attic if desired. Further scope outside where patio meets lawn with old stone walls one side, a good place for a pool. Enjoy views to rolling countryside, Kaimai Ranges sunsets and coast peeps.

The barn is an asset; two thirds of this sky-lit, fully lined building currently the base for a high-end business, the other third a large studio with bathroom which invites accommodating friends or hosting paid guests.

Magnificent native and exotic trees surround the grounds and merge into the avocados that surround them, some 80 (approximately) trees, a mix of mature and younger specimens.

Kiwifruit consists of 1.39can/ha of G3 (gold) in two blocks and 0.70can/ha of Hayward. It is a fully managed, high yield and profitable orchard supported by shedding that includes open and closed bays and basic worker facilities.

Proximity to Omokoroa No.1 School and easy access to the coast and urban centres further enhance a property where future roading plans could open even more opportunities. To be sold plus GST (if any).
