Nestled in lush Fern Flat valley, this enchanting lifestyle property is more than a home-it's a sanctuary of creativity and soul. Surrounded by park-style gardens, native bush, and a crystal-clear stream, it feels a world apart while still close to Northland amenities.

Once part of an artists' and hippie enclave, the land is dotted with hidden sculptures, exotic plantings, and inspired touches. A bubbling brook winds into a stream-fed waterhole-perfect for summer dips-while five paddocks across rolling grassy landscape invite animals, projects, or peaceful wandering.

The Home - Kauri Beauty with Soul
This two-bedroom bungalow, crafted from ancient Kauri, exudes warmth. High ceilings, timber floors, and stained-glass windows fill the spaces with light. Originally three bedrooms, now with a king main and double, both featuring sunny window seats for slow mornings.

A large separate lounge flows to a north-facing covered deck-ideal for entertaining or peaceful soaking. A wood-fired stove with wetback and gas cooker bring character and practicality. Spring-fed water connects you directly to the land. A wrap-around veranda offers shady spots to enjoy bird-song and breeze.

The Barn - Studio, Sleepout or Creative Retreat
A barn-style building offers undercover parking, two ground-level rooms (workshop/studio/sleepout), and a spacious open-plan upper floor-perfect for guests, teens, or creative endeavours.

Grow, Gather, Live
Food-lover's dream: a greenhouse, plus orchard bursting with heritage fruit-kiwifruit, grapes, citrus, apples, plums, apricots, cherries, persimmons, pears, figs, feijoas. A dam and the stream ensure year round self-sufficiency.

Location - Peaceful, Yet Connected
About 10min drive to Peria Primary School and Play Centre, 20 min to Coopers Beach, Taipa's high school, shops, boat ramp and golden beaches. Close to top NZ fishing grounds, 30 min to Kaitaia airport, hospital and services; an hour to Kerikeri.

Whether you're an artist, gardener, nature lover, or simply seeking a soulful lifestyle, this property invites you to slow down, breathe, and live closer to the land.
