Lifestyle living with space, views, and privacy

This well-presented lifestyle property offers the rare combination of modern family living, excellent land use, and stunning views over the Manukau Harbour. Set on 4.3 hectares of north facing land, with six well-fenced paddocks, 6000sqm of wetland/regenerating bush, a swimming pool, and a 70sqm garage. It's perfectly suited to families, hobby farmers, horse enthusiasts or anyone seeking space and a quality home in a peaceful setting.

The home has been recently updated, with a full re roof, reclad, insulation, and double-glazing giving peace of mind and year-round comfort. Inside, it provides four bedrooms and three separate living areas, which have been decorated with new carpet, drapes and paint throughout offering space for both family connection and privacy.

North facing, natural light fills the rooms, and large windows frame the land and harbour views. A wood burner anchors the main living area, creating warmth and atmosphere in winter.

The renovated kitchen has new dishwasher, new microwave and new smooth top appliances, and sits at the heart of the home, practical in layout and well connected to dining and living areas.

Lifestyle living is at its best here. The swimming pool promises easy summer living, while the paddocks provide room for animals, grazing, or other projects. The land is gently sloping to the north, well fenced, and easy to manage, giving flexibility whether for horses, livestock, or simply enjoying open space.

The standalone 70sqm garage is a major bonus, offering ample storage, secure parking, and space for hobbies or workshop use.

A tree-lined driveway and park like gardens provide an impressive entrance to the property, adding privacy and a sense of occasion.

Positioned to enjoy both rural tranquility and harbour outlooks, this property offers the best of both worlds.

You can enjoy the space and privacy of country living while remaining within easy reach of Te Hihi School, full primary, and ACG Strathallan - Early Learning School, Primary and College.

Less than 15 minutes to the shops, community amenities and motorway access. The Manukau Harbour provides not only a beautiful backdrop but also opportunities for recreation and relaxation.
