Welcome to your very own slice of paradise, offering an idyllic lifestyle in the heart of Northland. This immaculately presented, modern three-bedroom home sits on a spacious 2.5190 hectares (more or less) where you can enjoy the natural beauty of the large garden as well as extra land for a horse or livestock. Located just a 4km drive from Okaihau Village and 24km from the cafes and eateries of Kerikeri, this property offers the perfect mix of rural charm and accessibility.
Tucked away off Mihi Road, at the base of Okaihau Hill, the property is set amidst picturesque countryside views. Built in 2008, the home stands proudly on an elevated site with stunning gardens and lush landscaping that complement the natural surroundings. As you drive down the concrete driveway, flanked by mature trees, you’ll be greeted by the large modern home and the expansive grounds.
Entering through the double garage or the impressive front entrance, you are immediately welcomed into the heart of the home, where a spacious, open-plan living area awaits. The high ceilings throughout the home add to the sense of space and warmth, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The modern kitchen is the centrepiece of the living area, offering a prime position that allows you to prepare meals while overlooking the dining and lounge areas. Large ranch sliders open out onto the extensive decking area, creating a seamless flow between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. From the deck, enjoy the stunning views of the garden, lake, and beyond, while soaking up the sun or enjoying the cool shade under the pergola.
The kitchen itself is a dream for any home cook. Equipped with double wall ovens, a gas hob, and ample bench space, it is perfect for both everyday meals and entertaining guests. A walk-in scullery provides additional storage and ensures the kitchen space remains clean and organised, making cooking and meal preparation a breeze. Enjoy the warmth of a Kent-style fire with wet back, providing both cosy heat and hot water, while the HRV system circulates the warm air throughout. Solar water heating ensures energy efficiency, while the heat pump offers climate control throughout the year, a perfect blend of comfort and sustainability.
The master bedroom is a true sanctuary, the spacious room features a hidden walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite bathroom that is larger than most, with a corner shower, toilet, and bidet for added convenience. The master suite has its own private access to the deck, allowing you to step outside and enjoy the fresh morning air while sipping your coffee, with the birds singing and nature all around.
On the opposite side of the living area, down a large hallway, are two generously sized double bedrooms. Each room is filled with natural light and offers plenty of space for the family or guests. The main bathroom, located nearby, is a real highlight with its impressive claw-foot bath, perfect for relaxing after a long day. A separate toilet is conveniently located for ease of use.
Step outside and discover the beautifully designed gardens that surround the home. From morning walks to quiet moments in the garden, there are numerous spots to sit and relax, surrounded by the natural beauty of the landscape. The property features a garden lake that adds to the peaceful atmosphere, with plenty of space for children to play or for you to indulge in outdoor hobbies.
