Set Date Sale Closing 1pm, Wednesday 14 May 2025 (unless sold prior)
44 Roberts Street, Taupo

Located just ten minutes (approximately) north of Taupo on State Highway 5, this lifestyle property offers the perfect balance of peaceful country living and convenient access to town. It's also just a five-minute drive to the National Equestrian Centre, making it an ideal location for equestrian enthusiasts.

The 18.8 hectare (more or less), property features a three-bedroom weatherboard home, which is currently vacant. Inside, the dwelling has been recently updated with new carpet, a new stove and dishwasher, and new lino in the kitchen and dining areas. The bathroom has also been renovated. Each of the three generous sized bedrooms provides plenty of space for family living. Heating is provided via a wood burner and a heat pump, ensuring comfort throughout the year.

A detached two-bay garage sits conveniently beside the dwelling. Water supply is excellent, with the property having its own bore and two 25,000L storage tanks. A water filtration unit and pump, located at the dwelling, ensure good water pressure. Additionally, water is collected from the roof of the house, making this property highly self-sufficient. There are also troughs in every paddock. The property is fully subdivided with post and electric wire fencing, erected just two years ago, providing secure and functional grazing areas. The boundary fence is post and batten for added durability.

The contour of the land is flat to easy over the grazing area, with approximately 10 hectares of sidling land that has been planted in four-year-old pine trees. The remaining approximately 8 hectares of grassland has recently been undersown with new pastures, improving the productivity of the land. A large hay barn is already in place, ready to store the surplus grass grown on this versatile property.

This is an excellent opportunity for anyone looking to embrace a country lifestyle while being close to Taupo and local amenities, with a well-maintained home, functional infrastructure, and quality land.

This property is to be sold on a Plus GST (if any) basis.
