Deadline Sale: Offers in by 4 pm, 3rd February 2026 (unless sold prior)

Makerikeri Cottage isn’t just a home, it’s a sanctuary tucked into just over 1.1 hectares in the Loburn green belt. From the moment you arrive, landscaped lawns, specimen trees and garden hideaways invite you to slow down, breathe and settle into your very own paradise.

The grounds are a tapestry of lifestyle features: sweeping gardens, a cottage vegetable patch, tucked-away seating areas for a coffee, wine or beer depending on the time of day, and even an aviary that adds life and song to the backdrop. A wide pergola shelters much of the outdoor entertaining zone. Add in a large woodshed, chook house, rustic charm room perfect for alfresco dining, and it’s easy to see how this property delivers an outdoor dream all year round.

Inside, the home embraces its character with brickwork, dormer windows and light-filled spaces that frame garden vistas from every angle. Three generous living rooms create options for family and friends to spread out. The kitchen is ready for both daily life and entertaining. On the ground floor you’ll find a spacious double bedroom, full bathroom, laundry and a huge games/rumpus/craft room that's ideal for teenagers, hobbies or a retreat of your own.

Upstairs, three more double bedrooms and two singles, serviced by a family bathroom and a compact ensuite. One even includes a charming attic tucked away. In total: six bedrooms, two bathrooms and three toilets.

Practicality is matched by utility: a large garage/workshop with carport, additional storage structures, and a sun-drenched paved patio designed for gatherings big or small.

Set within a community-rich location, near Ashley Rugby Club, just ten minutes from Rangiora, where countryside calm meets everyday convenience. It’s a rare property that offers so much in one place: scale, peace, beauty, and a sense of euphoria that stays with you long after you leave.
