Games areas & outdoor rooms landscaped into lawns and scenery beyond your wildest dreams. The 4 bedrooms all have sea views and the living area’s boast both sea and country panoramas.

The rest of the 28 acres are broken into approximately 19 acres of both covenented and uncovenented bush and 8 acres of pasture. There are two small holding paddocks near the house and a pond. The pasture slopes through the properties own stunning valley of native bush and opens out to larger pastures. At this point there are new fantastic seaviews to Oaia Island all fringed by 500 year old pohutukawa’s an ancient native tree that fills with red flowers at Christmas time. There is another pond and the benefit of a natural spring running to it. The land is easy care and can run a few horses/ponies or stock. Great for kids on motorbikes and there are wide tracks suitable for 4 wheel drives. The owners lease it out to the local horse owners at the moment and enjoy it as their own private adventure playground. So take a walk through bush tracks, picnic under ancient pohutukawa’s, have a swim to cool down, grab a glass of wine and watch the sun go down over the widest seaviews around without having to leave your own property. Over the last few years British immigrants have bought many neighbouring lifestyle blocks so there is a built in community here already. In fact although the property is distinctly Kiwi, the present owner who built and developed it is English. There is a local fantastic cafe, mini grocery store, takeaways, all weather golf course, tennis courts, forest for walks and bikerides, surf club for kids "large and small", playground and more within 5 minutes drive and Auckland central is 40 minutes away. You can work from home or in town and come back to all this. Good schools handy. Properties in this road and area have sold for between 1.1 to 2.2 million New Zealand dollars in the past months and this property will not only offer an amazing lifestyle but is at a good price and will increase in value as all good costal property does. So where else in the world could offer you all this so close to it's largest city??!! The owners are staying in the area and have land they want to build on, so they would be more than happy to rent the property back and maintain it if time is needed due to immigration or investors are land banking etc etc.
