Welcome to a lifestyle like no other in the heart of sought-after Maungatapere. Just perfect for downsizers wanting to keep active, or families ready to grow with plenty of space for the kids to safely run around.

The home is sunny and inviting, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a master ensuite. The open-plan designer kitchen plays host to a substantial stone island bench, fitted with late-model Fisher & Paykel appliances (included in the sale). Flowing seamlessly to a generous deck, it is the ideal spot to stock the wine fridge and entertain guests in style. A generous laundry for practicality, wood burner fireplace, and two heat pumps ensure comfort year-round.

A large internal carport offers further flexibility, easily converted into a large fourth bedroom or rumpus room if desired. Outside, a supersized fully-fenced backyard is framed by tropical plants and palms - a safe haven for children or pets, and a beautiful space to relax.

This property is as productive as it is picturesque. Your very own Syrah vineyard and fully irrigated orchard include approximately 1,000 newly planted commercial Goldfinger bananas - a new industry about to take off. Add to that mature sugarcane, and several blocks of mixed-age avocados. A newly cleared bare block provides options for grazing or additional plantings.

Sheds are abundant, including a six bay with lock-up workshop. A John Deere tractor and ride-on mower are included, helping you stay on top of the land with ease.

Water is never a concern, with town water supply, rain catchment, the Maungatapere irrigation scheme, and stream access. Security is also a standout, with an automated entry gate and a four camera commercial CCTV system that is managed via an app.

This is your perfect country lifestyle, yet less than 20 minutes from the bustling town basin. Contact Jono Reeves at Bayleys today - properties with this much to offer don’t stay on the market for long.
