Lifestyle & Business Opportunity

Located in the well-regarded Waipara wine region and set on an expansive 8.38 hectares, this special property provides endless possibilities combining lifestyle and business opportunities in a breathtaking setting.

As you enter the olive tree-lined driveway, you are immediately drawn into the charm and character of this unique property. The scene unfolds to reveal a stunning French-inspired building, complete with large sliding doors to the fenced courtyard, traditional louvered shutters, and a north-facing veranda. Constructed from durable concrete tilt panels, the building is cleverly divided into two distinct spaces, one side currently operates as The Rusty Fiddle café, and the other is dedicated to stylish accommodation.

The café area features a welcoming serving and seating space on the ground floor, with a mezzanine level, a fully equipped commercial kitchen, and an extra seating section ensures ample space for guests. The café has two bathrooms, one of which is wheelchair-accessible and includes a shower.

The accommodation wing has been beautifully renovated, featuring a new kitchen, bathrooms, insulation, wiring, plumbing, and fresh paint throughout. On the ground floor is the contemporary kitchen, spacious open-plan living and dining area, and a generously sized bathroom with laundry. Upstairs, you will find a large bedroom complete with a charming open fireplace and bathroom, along with an additional bedroom located on the third level. This versatile layout is currently used as a lovely small family home but has previously been used as Airbnb accommodation, or manager's accommodation.

Outbuildings and improvements include a four-bay shed with power, four small sheds, two with power and one with a garden irrigation unit, a large vegetable garden with irrigation, and a chicken coop. Plus GST (if any)
