489A Barrett Road, Omata, New Plymouth, Taranaki

Set amid rolling farmland with sweeping views to the mountain, this quintessential lifestyle property embodies the freedom so many crave – all within reach of the city.

Crafted for comfort and connection, the main residence (built in 2008) balances modern practicality with effortless style. Fresh new flooring and neutral tones flow through light-filled spaces, while the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area seamlessly frames the surrounding rural views. Sliding doors extend the living space to a deck with sweeping mountain views. Four bedrooms (three with built-in robes), a new family bathroom with bath, and a separate laundry ensure family functionality. Aluminium joinery, ceiling and wall insulation, wood burner, and heat transfer system keep things comfortable year-round.

The second dwelling, built in 2018 by Signature Homes, mirrors the main home’s aesthetic and offers complete independence – perfect for extended family, guests, or rental income. With two bedrooms, one bathroom, open plan living, and its own laundry, it’s the ideal setup for multigenerational living.

Outside, the 7,361sqm (more or less) landholding unfolds as a rural playground – fully fenced, planted with citrus and fruit trees, complete with vegetable gardens, a children’s play area, and a newly established native shelter belt. There’s ample space for grazing a few animals, and the generous workshop/outbuilding and double garage cater perfectly to tools, gear, and hobbies. Two large water tanks, LED lighting upgrades, and low-maintenance Paliside cladding make this property as practical as it is picturesque.

Just 9.2km from the CBD, 6.4km to Omata Primary, and 4.4km from The Backyard Café, this is where the best of both worlds meets – country calm and city convenience.

For families chasing the dream of space, fresh air, and connection – this is the lifestyle you’ve been waiting for.
