1216 Egmont Road, Egmont Village, New Plymouth, Taranaki

Set on a beautifully flat, landscaped 4.7-acre (more or less) parcel with sweeping mountain views, this exceptional lifestyle property strikes the perfect balance of versatility, comfort and thoughtful design. With two well-appointed dwellings on one title, it presents a rare opportunity for extended families, guest accommodation, or a potential income stream - all in a peaceful rural setting just minutes from the city.

The main dwelling, built by Fowler Homes in 2012, is accessed via automatic gates and a tree-lined driveway - a private and impressive entrance that sets the tone for what lies beyond. Light-filled and welcoming, the home features a premium Rowson kitchen with a generous scullery at its heart, flowing seamlessly into spacious open-plan living and dining areas designed for relaxed family living and effortless entertaining.

Step outside to your own private retreat: a solar-heated magnesium pool framed by lush, landscaped gardens and complemented by a covered alfresco patio (approx. 70sqm) with wood fire - the ultimate space for year-round enjoyment.

Accommodation includes three generously proportioned bedrooms, including a luxurious master suite with beautifully appointed ensuite, walk-in wardrobe, and direct outdoor access. A separate media room and a large home office provide flexible spaces for work or relaxation - or could easily be adapted into additional bedrooms. Internal access is provided through a triple-car garage, ply-lined for a sleek and practical finish. A solar system with Tesla battery storage enhances energy efficiency and supports long-term sustainability. Adding to the property's appeal is a substantial 12x12m shed - a standout feature with exceptional versatility. It includes a separate room ideal for hobbies, a gym, or a work-from-home setup, along with a studio-style kitchenette, bathroom, cosy wood burner, mezzanine floor and two-poster hoist - perfect for hobbyists or collectors. Additional sheds and carports offer excellent storage and utility, while a small orchard adds a charming lifestyle touch.

Discreetly positioned with its own separate access from another road, the second dwelling blends harmoniously with the rest of the property. It offers three bedrooms, open-plan living, a wraparound deck for easy outdoor flow, double-glazed bedrooms, and a double garage with workshop. Ideal for extended family, guests, or tenants, it provides independence while maintaining connection to the main residence.

Both homes enjoy their own privacy thanks to thoughtful landscaping and fencing, while sharing the beauty and practicality of the wider property. The land is divided into four well-fenced paddocks, each with its own water supply - perfect for grazing or hobby farming. Perfectly positioned in a sought-after lifestyle pocket, this property is just 12 minutes from New Plymouth and 6 minutes from Inglewood - offering the ideal blend of country peace and city convenience. Families will appreciate zoning for Egmont Village School, a highly regarded rural primary (Years 1-8), with the added bonus of safe access via an underpass beneath the main highway.

Whether you're seeking room to grow with your family, a home-plus-income opportunity, or a flexible setup that adapts to your lifestyle, this outstanding property delivers it all - space, privacy, versatility and that ever-elusive sense of "home."
