Description

Discover a home designed for comfort, relaxation, and connection with nature. This charming property offers a beautifully refurbished two-bedroom cottage, complemented by a spacious, professionally built sleepout with an ensuite (not consented).

The main cottage features a generous master bedroom that opens onto a sunny deck overlooking a tranquil pond with goldfish and the occasional frog, along with a cozy second bedroom ideal for family or guests and a family bathroom to share with separate toilet.

The open-plan kitchen, dining area, and lounge feature matai timber floors, a cozy wet-back wood burner, and an 8kW heat pump for year-round warmth. The property relies on a 25,000-liter rainwater tank, with additional water supplied for gardens and stock from a neighboring property.

Space for Everyone and Everything Perfect for animal lovers, the property includes multiple paddocks, stables, an aviary, a chook house, and plenty of room for sheep, chickens, or even a donkey or two. Outdoor parking accommodates multiple vehicles with ease.

Located 20 minutes from Waitomo Caves and Otorohanga, and 15 minutes from Te Kuiti, you’re close enough for a café fix yet far enough to enjoy true tranquility. Rural mail delivery, rubbish collection, and a school bus route add convenience to this secluded retreat.

A Haven for Nature Enthusiasts Set on nearly two hectares (five acres) of picturesque land, this property feels much larger, with limestone formations, lush native trees, and stunning views. Relax on a sunlit porch with a glass of wine, explore the many trails and hidden spots, and savor the peace and beauty of rural life.

This property is a sanctuary for native birds, including tui, kereru, piwakawaka, and grey warblers, along with dozens of other species. Wander through the grounds to find majestic tree ferns, kawakawa, mahoe, and even the odd totara, nikau, and rimu. Hidden nooks invite quiet meditation, while a short climb reveals expansive views of rolling hills and distant mountains. A tiny secret cave awaits discovery by the adventurous.

At night, enjoy unparalleled stargazing. With no light pollution—the nearest streetlight is 11 kilometers away—you can marvel at the Milky Way, Orion, and Matariki in their full glory.

Extensive gardens provide vibrant displays of roses, hellebores, succulents, aquilegias, and Michaelmas daisies in spring and summer. Citrus trees, a Vietnamese cherry tree, and several cherry blossom trees attract bees and tui, adding to the natural splendor. Unique additions like dogwood, witch hazel, and a wedding cake tree create an enchanting outdoor space.
