Country Retreat with Lake Views!

After over five decades in one loving family, this exceptional lifestyle property overlooking Lake Waikare is now ready for its next chapter. Offering breathtaking views, privacy, space, and a beautifully renovated home, this is a rare opportunity to secure your slice of rural paradise. Originally built in the 1950s, the solid brick home has been thoughtfully modernised and extended in the mid 2000s to create a spacious, light-filled retreat designed for today's lifestyle. With four bedrooms, office, and a rumpus/play room with built-in desk, there's room for the whole family to live, work, and play in comfort. Experience all-day sun from decks on both sides of the home, while the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area opens through bi-fold doors to reveal stunning panoramic lake views. Stay cozy and healthy throughout the year with a wood burner, Daikin heat pump, heat transfer system, and HRV ventilation. The kitchen features quality appliances - Smeg oven and gas/electric hob, Bosch dishwasher, plus Fisher & Paykel vertical fridge and freezer. Unwind in the elegant cast iron clawfoot bath, or enjoy the practicality of a separate shower, double vanity, and separate toilet. Perched for perfect views, there is also a sleepout boasting its own deck, carpet, power and curtains.
