The timeless attraction of Cape Cod elegance is evident in this charming home high on the hill overlooking lush rolling fields and beautiful Maungatautari mountain, only two minutes drive from central Cambridge. With a second, income earning two-bedroom dwelling this is the full package with in-ground saltwater swimming pool, large decks, gorgeous gardens, fresh spring drinking water and an abundance of fruit trees on 8595sqm of grounds (more or less).
In the newly painted and refreshed main home, throw open the large doors of the spacious formal lounge with marble fireplace and entertain poolside, or do the same on the other side of the house off the light-filled kitchen and open plan family room which also spill out to their own large deck. Granite benches and chandeliers adorn the home, and with a nod to yesteryear, there’s even a separate grand dining room off the main entrance.

The master bedroom and ensuite upstairs with its own small Juliet balcony, enjoys views across Cambridge Golf Club and rolling hills regularly lit up by striking sunsets. Two other bedrooms upstairs and a fourth downstairs cater for guests or family of all ages. The family bathroom with gorgeous freestanding bath is a sight to behold, with views out over the adjoining farmland.
Working from home is an absolute pleasure with your private office set down a level from the family room, overlooking the fountain, rose gardens and majestic Maungatautari.
If classic cars or boats are your thing look no further than the substantial 43sqm (more or less) workshop where you can take tinkering to a whole new level. There’s space in the double garage too for more cars alongside another double carport where you can store enough wood to retreat all winter long.
Out in the garden, amidst the grapevines, plums, berries and citrus trees a separate studio works a treat as a gym, art space or teenage hangout.
Keep the bank happy and rent out the 70sqm (more or less) consented two bedroom cottage with its own private entrance, perfect as an Air BnB, or a long term rental prospect. If you'd rather pop extended family, teenagers or overflow visitors out here, be prepared for them to get comfortable and stay on! The second dwelling has its own large lounge, modern kitchen, bathroom and sunny, private deck.
This splendid property is in a prime location just 1.9km from the heart of Cambridge’s main street and within easy reach of the Waikato River walkways, Lake Karapiro, or SH1 for commuting north or south- that's if you ever want to leave! Make it a date and view today.
