Situated in a tranquil setting adjacent to the DOC reserve, with the soft sounds of birdsong providing a peaceful backdrop. The expansive 26,080 sqm property features gently manicured lawns and gardens, along with eight well-fenced paddocks—perfect for equestrian pursuits. A sand arena welcomes horse lovers and riders of all levels, while the property’s substantial 200 sqm shed is ideal for car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone seeking ample workshop or storage space.

Enjoy the open plan living and dining areas, seamlessly connected to gardens on both sides. High ceilings and exposed beams create an airy, welcoming ambience, while a wood-burning fireplace in the family room ensures cozy gatherings during cooler months. The country kitchen, laundry, and bathrooms offer practical convenience, blending traditional features such as timber benchtops and rustic tiling for authentic rural charm.

Upstairs, the master suite boasts a private balcony with sweeping rural views, a walk-in wardrobe, and an ensuite. Two additional spacious bedrooms and generous roof storage complete the upper level. Connected to the main home by a sheltered veranda, a fully self-contained one-bedroom cottage stands ready as a teenager’s retreat or for use as a rental opportunity, as currently enjoyed by the owners.

This outstanding rustic family residence is located within minutes of Tamahere Country School, the Farmer’s Market, Hamilton City, and all local amenities.
