20 Waipapa West Road, Waipapa, Far North, Northland

If you've ever added up what you spend on your home, commercial lease, storage, commuting between the two, and wondered if there was another way of doing things, there might be.

Because this is not your standard "work from home" proposition.

At one end of the driveway is an award-winning former showhome. At the other, 344sqm (more or less) of shed. In between is a whole lot of possibility.

And that shed changes things.

It's big. Properly big. There's room for vehicles, equipment, stock, a serious workshop or perhaps a business that has simply outgrown the garage. There's loft space for an office, easy access and, with State Highway 10 running along the boundary, the sort of visibility most homes don't have and most businesses have to pay for.

Yet when you finish work, you can actually leave it behind.

The 223sqm (more or less) house sits separately and feels every bit like home. Three bedrooms, each with an ensuite, two living areas, a beautiful kitchen and scullery, high ceilings and doors opening out to the pool. Originally Madison Park's Kerikeri showhome, it went on to receive Regional Silver at the 2024 Master Builders House of the Year.

Of course, you don't need to own a business.

Maybe you collect cars. Have a boat or motorhome. Need somewhere for the toys. Want a huge workshop. Or a normal residential garage is simply never going to be enough.

All of this sits on 8,185sqm (more or less), just minutes from Waipapa.

Home. Work. Family. Storage. Extra income. Or some combination of the lot.

Perhaps you've been looking for two properties when what you actually need is this one.

And that changes everything.
