If your idea of a lifestyle block involves more lawnmower than lifestyle, this could be the answer.

Set on more than 4,000sqm in the heart of Coroglen, this beautifully renovated four-bedroom, 2-bathroom family home offers the space and freedom of country living without the workload often attached to larger rural properties. The extensive established gardens create a private, peaceful setting, while the home itself is ready for you to move in and enjoy from day one.

For families, the location is hard to beat. Coroglen School is nearby, the famous Coroglen Market is just down the road, and in summer the river becomes your local swimming pool. The neighbouring Coroglen Tavern adds a touch of iconic charm, with affordable tasty meals and summer gigs, while still allowing you to retreat to your own private haven.

Weekends here can be as busy or relaxed as you choose. Spend the morning in the garden, walk to the market, take the kids for a swim in the river, or head to the coast. The golden sands of Hahei, Cooks Beach and Hot Water Beach are all within around 15 minutes, while the shops, services and cafes of Whitianga are just 10 minutes away.

This is a property for those who want room for children to roam, gardens to enjoy, and a genuine sense of community, without sacrificing convenience or spending every weekend maintaining acreage. A rare opportunity to enjoy the best parts of rural living while keeping life simple.
