Description
Nestled on the hills just north of Te Kuiti, this impressive family home offers the perfect blend of privacy, scale, and business opportunity. Surrounded by other quality lifestyle properties, this elevated setting provides sweeping rural views and an enviable balance between home, business, and leisure.
What truly sets this property apart is the sheer size and versatility of its infrastructure. Formerly operating as a Wool Store, the extensive shed complex spans approximately 1,000 m², with a 300 m² canopy. The scale and presentation of this 12-hectare (approx. 30-acre) property is unparalleled, offering outstanding potential for home-based business ventures, storage, or even event hosting. With ample parking and a stunning garden backdrop, the grounds naturally lend themselves to venue hire-perfect for summer weddings and large gatherings.
The Hinuera Stone home exudes a relaxed country charm, featuring a solid Matai kitchen and Australian hardwood flooring. Accommodation includes five double bedrooms, two lounges, and a generous home office/family room offering flexibility for extended family and business use. A large deck runs the full length of the home, overlooking manicured lawns and park-like gardens-soon to host yet another wedding celebration.
The established gardens have been carefully designed for easy maintenance, complemented by a productive orchard where produce is harvested for up to 10 months of the year. A reliable spring water source to the property gives you peace of mind in the summer months.
Adjacent to the home sits an impressive garage complex with space for at least four vehicles, plus a "man cave" with mezzanine floor. Already equipped with a toilet and plumbing for a future shower, this area offers exciting scope for conversion into additional accommodation or guest hosting options.
Lovingly developed over generations, this property carries a rich local history-transformed from humble beginnings into one of the King Country's truly iconic lifestyle estates. Offering family living, business potential, and rural tranquility all in one, opportunities like this are exceedingly rare.
We challenge you to find better.
