Family Lifestyle with a Difference

Are you looking for a well-treed lifestyle that oozes personality, character and potential?

You must put this property on your list. My current vendors have loved living in this pleasantly quirky property but it's time to downsize.

A mountain bike and walking track have been established amongst the established mature trees, which could also be perfect for the kids ponies to race around. For the bird watchers there is a Maimai on the idyllic lagoon. Or another useful fort for the boys. The architectural 3-4 bedroom home has many great features from the always popular cathedral ceilings in the lounge to the conservatory with views to the ranges and sweeping over your property.

The current owners have bought up 4 children in this home and say when there is a crowd invading the home, it works well with lots of separate spaces for everyone to escape. In the winter they keep toasty warm with the very effective central wood burner, perfect for keeping the soup warm. A heat transfer system keeps the bedrooms cosy. Halcombe is certainly a transitional village with lots of new quality homes been built and a Primary school with a brilliant reputation. A bonus is the school bus at the gate. Only 12 minutes to Feilding and 20 minutes to Palmerston North. My vendors are downsizing and want SOLD. Call me anytime to view.

Architectural splendour and space

With the trademark quality and flair of award-winning Turner Road Architecture, this supremely elegant residence set on an elevated site in exclusive Tamahere, is designed to impress. Every last detail of this energy efficient home has been perfected by our astute vendors, including half a kilometre of piping for hydraulic underfloor heating, eighteen solar panels and zoned central heating.

Both living zones make an immediate move outdoors, meeting an expansive patio that puts dining and entertaining in the sun, while the verandah supplies a welcome stretch of shade and the spa pool brings an indulgent edge to your evenings.

Four bedrooms and three bathrooms come with the considerable advantage of two master suites. The leading and larger of the two takes a moodier direction with a large walk-in wardrobe and bold en-suite, while its counterpart is clean-lined and neutral, giving guests or extended family an elevated level of privacy and comfort.

A separate study and laundry give work and chores their own quarters, while multi-zoned underfloor heating extends across almost the entire home, joined by an Escea gas fire and heat pump, with extensive solar putting energy efficiency firmly in the home’s favour.

Garaging and shedding reach rare proportions, with four-car provision at the house joined by a separate shed housing a fully fledged man cave and dedicated boat bay, while a further four-bay shed with three bays enclosed takes care of machinery, projects and everything in between.

Privacy and play come with room to roam across the well-fenced grounds, where manicured lawns and established natives frame a scenic pond, while planter boxes and stock yards give growing and grazing a working presence on the property.

With Swannanoa School and Mandeville’s shops only minutes away, the location takes the distance out of country living, completing a lifestyle property where four-hectare freedom and an impressive line-up of facilities come wrapped in the finish of a full renovation.
