There's a lot more to 458 Mountain Road than first meets the eye. Set across just over 4.9 acres,(more or less), this renovated character villa brings together a four-bedroom home, well-fenced paddocks with water, excellent shedding and plenty of space to make country living your own.

The single-level weatherboard home is insulated and offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a third toilet, with generous proportions and character features throughout. Open-plan living is warmed by a wood burner with wetback, while the sunny covered porch provides a relaxed spot to sit back and enjoy the gardens and rural surroundings.

Outside, the property really comes into its own. Well-fenced paddocks, each with water, offer options for livestock, a pony or two, or simply room to enjoy, while the double garage, substantial pole barn, additional shed and generous off-street parking provide excellent space for vehicles, equipment, hobbies and storage.

And you don't have to sacrifice convenience to get the space. Lepperton village is just minutes away, Tawa Glen Cafe is right next door, while New Plymouth, Inglewood and New Plymouth Airport are all within easy driving distance.

If lifestyle living has been on your wish list, take another look at 458 Mountain Road, there may be more here than you realised.
