12 Hodgson Lane, Tamahere

At the end of a quiet, tree-lined lane in one of Tamahere’s most tightly held enclaves, this much-loved, one-owner property offers the perfect balance of space, seclusion, and family-friendly living. Surrounded by lush, established gardens and framed by mature hedging for ultimate privacy, this is a true sanctuary — a place where children can roam, play, and grow, and parents can unwind in peaceful surroundings. Built in 2005 by Bruce Turton Master Builder and extended in 2010, this thoughtfully designed 320 sqm home has been created with family in mind. From its light-filled interiors to the seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, every aspect supports relaxed, practical living. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area sits at the heart of the home, bringing everyone together in one generous and functional space. The bespoke kitchen, complete with a custom-built island, makes meal prep and conversation a joy — perfect for busy mornings or weekend entertaining. A separate formal lounge with a schist-surround gas fire offers a cosy retreat in cooler months, while the covered Loggia dedicated with outdoor woodfire area invites year-round gatherings long into the evening, becomes the preferred setting for everything from birthday parties to quiet evening dinners. This property celebrates outdoor living as much as it does comfort inside. From the sun-drenched entertaining area, the north-facing grounds unfold to reveal a sparkling in-ground saltwater pool — a favourite spot in the summer months. The flat, sprawling lawn invites endless games of backyard cricket or soccer, and the fully fenced paddocks provide space for pets or calf club day animals. An established orchard offers seasonal fruit and the chance for children to learn and grow in nature. With four spacious bedrooms, a dedicated office, and well-appointed bathrooms, there’s room for everyone to have their own space while staying connected. The practical lifestyle extras are just as impressive, with triple internal-access garaging, a separate implement shed, and a trickle-feed water supply adding ease and flexibility. Location is everything here. While the home feels like a hidden escape, it remains only minutes from Tamahere Village, Hillcrest, and easy access to key arterial routes into Cambridge and Hamilton. Walking or biking to Tamahere School is simple and safe, and secondary school bus stops are also nearby. Local parks, the nearby skate park, and the popular playground are all easily accessible. This is more than just a property — it’s a place where your family can live, laugh, grow, and truly belong. Let the next chapter begin at 12 Hodgson Lane.
