Set on 2.207 hectares of flat, peaceful countryside, 86 Forrest Road offers an exceptional lifestyle opportunity just 6km from the Cambridge Town Hall. Tucked away down a quiet no exit road, this property provides a rare sense of privacy and calm while remaining close to the amenities, cafes, and charm of Cambridge township.
The home is a solid, welcoming four bedroom residence featuring 1½ bathrooms and a relaxed open plan kitchen and living area that captures lovely rural views across the paddocks. Comfort is well catered for with a Kent log burner, heat pump, and a heat transfer system ensuring warmth throughout the cooler months.
The land is thoughtfully divided into seven paddocks, which have previously produced both haylage and hay, and are equipped with three wire electric fencing. The grounds are enhanced by a wonderful variety of mature trees, including striking liquid ambers and established gums, adding natural shade, shelter, and beauty. An appealing orchard provides seasonal fruit with apricot, plum, feijoa, mandarin, and peach trees.
Practical infrastructure includes a three bay Versatile shed (approx. 6m x 9m) - one bay contains a lined loose box, while the other two offer excellent storage space. Water is connected to the shed. A bore supplies stock water and fills a holding tank near the house, complete with a filtration system at the pump. Vehicle and equipment storage is well accommodated with three car garaging, comprising a double garage and a separate single garage currently used for the mower and firewood.
The location is particularly convenient, offering quick access to the Waikato Expressway for an easy commute to Hamilton, Taupo, or surrounding regions. Families will appreciate the proximity to excellent schooling options, including Hautapu Primary, and St Peter’s School, as well as Cambridge Middle and High Schools. This is a superb property for those seeking space, tranquility, and lifestyle living close to Cambridge.
