Looking for the ultimate escape? This secluded bolthole is a fisherman’s dream, just minutes from the legendary Waihao Box and the winding Waihao River, offering some of the region’s best trout and whitebait fishing right on your doorstep. Cast a line in the morning, wander your orchard in the afternoon, and enjoy the satisfaction of life lived at your own pace.
Tucked at the end of a quiet dead-end road, this property combines privacy, lifestyle potential, and adventure. Park the boat and caravan, bring family and friends, and turn weekends into memorable escapes. Small paddocks and mature hedges provide shelter and seclusion, while multiple sheds and a chook house are ready for projects, storage, or hobby space.
The orchard still thrives with nectarine, peach, apricot, cherry, and pear trees — perfect for picking fresh fruit straight to the kitchen. The sunroom is the ideal spot for morning coffee, relaxing, or planning your next river adventure, letting the light in while keeping the outside world at a distance.
Inside, the home offers two bedrooms including a generous master, a bright country kitchen with built-in cupboards, and ranch sliders opening onto a sheltered outdoor entertaining area — perfect for summer barbecues or long evenings after a day on the river. The standout feature is the solid wood cookstove on wetback, a practical centrepiece for heating, baking pies and pizzas, or frying your freshly caught fish — perfect for semi off-grid or self-sufficient living.
This is more than a property — it’s a lifestyle. Your mornings can be riverside, your afternoons cabin-side, and your evenings under star-strewn skies, cooking, relaxing, and enjoying the ultimate getaway. Adventure, seclusion, and self-sufficiency come together in one extraordinary property.
A genuine fishermans escape with enormous potential — offers over GV of $490,000 will be considered.
