The location of this tranquil and private lifestyle property will have high appeal due to its proximity offering lifestyle living with city convenience. The cottage was originally built for the Odlins family as a holiday home and a total renovation completed, there is the possibility to extend the home. Recently excavated drive on access has been designed to allow for a garage. Beautiful established trees and gardens surround the cottage which is accessed by a split level deck, with space for outdoor entertaining whilst overlooking the property. French doors welcome you inside the tastefully refurbished cottage where the high stud and ornate features offer a warm ambience and neutral decor. The sunroom spans the north of the home and has polished timber floors and extensive glazing with glass louvres that not only maximise the sunny aspect but indulge the mature trees in your view. The contemporary kitchen features a lovely mantle piece and ideally enjoys the morning sun. From the kitchen a separate laundry and storage room has access through French doors to a rear courtyard which is surrounded by terraced and raised gardens. Adjacent to the kitchen the dining room with a compliant wood burner extends to the sunporch living room. Bedroom accommodation offers two double bedrooms, one of these the master bedroom which opens to the sunporch, extending the space. There is stylish full bathroom with a stand alone claw foot bath. The property is organic and on the north terrace is a home orchard with mature trees and new plantings, some of these heritage trees. A pathway lined with Rhododendrons and Azaleas leads to a mature woodland, there is the opportunity to develop this further. Completing the property, a garden shed and the bonus of your own bore water. The balance of land is ideal for grazing horses or stock, and is fully fenced with the benefit of a second access. Call Jacqui to view, you will be impressed. TENDER: Closes 4:00 p.m. Thursday 20 May 2021, NZSIR Ahuriri Office (unless sold prior)...
