Description
Wind your way up bush-clad Maungakawa Road to this serene sanctuary atop Pukemako Hill. Perched on a 3,398 sqm (more or less) section amid lush farmland, this beautifully renovated country home only minutes to Cambridge, offers jaw-dropping vistas from every room.
Step inside to an expansive open-plan living area that captivates with panoramic views. A striking stone feature wall with large wood fire and mood lighting anchors the lounge, while the gourmet Robin Cauldwell kitchen - featuring Miele appliances, butler’s pantry, warming drawer, and oversized breakfast bar - takes centre stage. The window seat, framing views from Mt Taranaki to Raglan’s windmills, is perfect for quiet reflection. A second living space, bathed in morning sun, doubles as an ideal home office.
Outdoor entertaining is effortless with dual decks for all weather. Fire up the Engel outdoor oven/open fire on the eastern deck, overlooking Mt Te Aroha and the Kaimai Range, and watch kereru feast in the kowhai. Or retreat to the western deck for incredible sunsets across the Waikato basin.
The north-facing master suite mesmerises with twinkling Cambridge lights, complimented by an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Three additional bedrooms share a family bathroom. At the home’s end, a triple carpeted garage includes a home gym with the best view in town, plus a three-bay shed for all your toys.
A thriving orchard and vegetable garden ensure year-round fresh produce, while low-maintenance native gardens enhance the outlook. School buses stop at the gate, and a short walk leads to Pukemako Scenic Reserve’s bush tracks. Join locals cycling or walking Maungakawa Road for invigorating exercise.
