Coastal, country living with sub-division approval

Dreaming of a private, country coastal lifestyle with something for the whole family? This could be it. Built in 2010, with plaster over brick and weatherboard cladding, this solid home is the epitome of a country homestead. All rooms are super-sized and the wide entrance, hallway and 2.7m stud invites you in. A variety of timber creates a warm environment with Jarah flooring, Kauri kitchen cabinetry and a range of gum in the trims. The kitchen/dining/family room is the hub of the home and you can easily envisage family gatherings or friends catching up over a meal. This room opens out to the deck and views for pre-dinner drinks in summer or enjoying the warmth of the wood burner in winter. The adjoining lounge also enjoys panoramic views and opens out to wrap around decking for those balmy evenings and its own wood burner is perfect for those winter nights when you want to enjoy a movie or the family wants to cheer on their favourite sports team.
The master suite includes walk in robe and ensuite with tiled, walk in shower and a bath for relaxing after a day in the garden, on the farm or at the beach and is handy for the littlies. Three further bedrooms and bathroom on the ground floor provide ample accommodation and the bathroom conveniently opens through to the mudroom/laundry - handy after time outside and ideal after time in the spa pool. Upstairs the large bedroom offers many options - privacy for guests, area for adult children with children, teenage hangout or hobbies room. There is a third bathroom for convenience and an office with views out to the coast. The capacious, triple internal garage makes it easy to store all the vehicles and unload groceries and family. On top of this the large barn with concrete floor and power is a workshop and great space to store the beach toys, boat or camper and would work well for a tradie and the driveway is reinforced concrete. There's ample water for the home and farm and there's a wetback on a wood burner and solar panels to assist with water heating providing power savings. With 11 hectares it is set up for farming beef and sheep with troughs in all paddocks plus hay barn, stock yards and loading ramp. There is room for the children to have pets, dirt bikes and a pony, or maybe the horse you have been dreaming of (and there is a great pony club less than 6 kilometres away). There's Resource Consent in place for a four lot sub-division giving you options of enjoying as is, retaining the house site and selling the balance now or later, or sell the home and build a new home for yourself. On tar seal roading and only 5 kilometres from the village where there is a variety of cafes, shops, markets, schools, tennis and sports grounds and is just a little further for a championship golf club, boat launching, the estuary and a great surf beach. Whether you want to give your kids a coastal/country upbringing, want to enjoy a bit of the good life and/or gain from the Resource Consent in place, make the time to come and see if this is the one for you. Owners are downsizing and have their sights set elsewhere - here is your chance!
