A World Of Your Own

Set within a sought after pocket of Matangi, this private lifestyle property offers a beautiful balance of established surroundings, generous space and everyday convenience.

Extending across approximately 1.16 hectares, the grounds are a defining feature. Mature trees, expansive lawns and beautifully maintained gardens create a wonderful sense of privacy and space, complemented by established fruit trees. It's a setting that has been carefully established over time, offering a level of maturity and character that's difficult to replicate.

At the centre of it all, the substantial two storey brick home offers approximately 319 square metres of floor area, comprising four bedrooms, including two ensuites, a dedicated office and multiple living areas. Three bedrooms are positioned upstairs, creating a natural separation between the family's private spaces, while a fourth bedroom with its own ensuite occupies a separate wing on the ground floor. This thoughtful layout offers flexibility for guests, extended family or those seeking additional independence within the home.

The country style kitchen connects naturally with the dining and living areas, with easy access to the outdoor spaces and surrounding grounds. Beyond the home, triple garaging and a separate, three-bay shed add further versatility, whether for vehicles, storage, hobbies or projects.

The appeal extends well beyond the property itself. Despite its private setting and established landscape, you're conveniently positioned close to Hamilton, Waikato University, Hillcrest schooling and everyday amenities, making it easy to enjoy the best of both lifestyle and location.

For buyers seeking a substantial lifestyle property with established gardens, room for family living and a location that keeps everything within reach, 47D Poplar Lane presents an opportunity to enjoy more space without sacrificing convenience.

Some properties are built for a lifetime. Others are built to stand the test of time.

Dating back to the late 1800s, this extraordinary residence was originally built for the Manager of the historic Victoria Battery. Rich in history and character, it is a property of remarkable significance, where more than a century of heritage meets the comforts of modern-day living.

Transformed through an extensive remodel by a previous owner, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined while retaining the grandeur and timeless appeal that make it so special.

The home's impressive proportions and enduring character reflect an era of craftsmanship rarely seen today.

Beyond the residence, the grounds are equally captivating. Spanning just over one hectare across multiple titles (13, 15 & 18 Banks Lane + 50 Old Waitekauri Road), the property offers a remarkable combination of natural beauty, privacy and versatility.

A picturesque waterfall, established bush and open grazing land create an enchanting landscape, offering a sense of seclusion and tranquillity that is increasingly difficult to find. Whether exploring the grounds, enjoying the peaceful surroundings or simply appreciating the beauty of the setting, this is a place where life can be enjoyed at a different pace.

Practicality has not been overlooked, with a double garage complemented by a substantial workshop and loft space above, providing excellent options for storage, hobbies or creative pursuits. An additional double carport offers further covered parking, ensuring ample room for vehicles and equipment.

Properties of this calibre, with such a rich history, substantial landholding and extraordinary natural features, seldom become available.
More than a home, this is a piece of history, a private sanctuary and an opportunity to become part of its next chapter.

A truly once-in-a-lifetime offering.

A generous island with stone benchtops and timber-accented pendant lighting anchors the kitchen, complemented by a walk-in pantry that makes everyday living effortless. Sliding doors open on both sides to the outdoors, so the indoor-outdoor flow is seamless. A second living room, with its own garden outlook and barn door detail, gives the whole family room to spread out and an option for a media room should you require it.

The master suite is a peaceful retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and spacious ensuite. Three further bedrooms and a second bathroom provide plenty of space for children, guests or a home office.

Outside, the covered entertaining area is where this property really comes into its own. With a louvre style roof to suit any weather, a deck for long lunches and a patio for the barbecue, it looks out across the lawns and over the countryside as the sun sets behind the poplars.

Practicality is equally well catered for. An excellent three-bay shed of approximately 96 square metres offers room for machinery, vehicles and workshop space, and the double garage with garage carpet has internal access to the home.

Peaceful, private and stunningly positioned, this is the lifestyle property you have been waiting for. Call Sarah today to arrange your viewing.

So Much On Offer!

This outstanding lifestyle block, some 22 kilometres West of Hastings has it all. Set on 6.11 hectares of parklike grounds we have a large executive style home with a nine-foot stud, comprising four generous double bedrooms, two bathrooms, three toilets plus laundry. There is a kitchen/ dining area with all new appliances, two living or lounge areas, office, sunroom and formal entranceway. The home is well heated from three heat pumps plus a Lady Kitchener on a wetback complimented by a heat transfer system around the home and being a brick and tile home is relatively maintenance free and was built to a high spec.

There is a large lined consented workshop with a bathroom, kitchen set up. Use your imagination here as to multiple uses going forward. Down another driveway is a large two roller door gable workshop which in the normal scheme of things would be a blokes dream but this is dwarfed by the large American barn of approx. 700 plus square metres. This commercial shed has its own driveway and extensive hard surface area out front with three phase power. This is a contractors/tradies set up with room for an extensive business to be based out of here or a lifetime of collecting toys to fill it up.

The block is subdivided into six main paddocks with water from a bore and dams, and there is a set of cattle yards with load-out race attached.
We are four kilometres from Pukehamoamoa school with bus past the gate and situated in a very strong community. Should privacy be front of mind then this block delivers big time.

A statement in country living

A property of exceptional calibre, this impressive Clevedon residence combines architectural integrity, refined interiors and beautifully established grounds in an offering of remarkable quality.

Spanning approximately 425sqm and arranged across three distinct wings, the residence presents a striking architectural profile that sits comfortably within its meticulously landscaped setting. Superbly positioned at the end of a private laneway behind secured gated entry, providing optimum security and seclusion. From the grand entrance and landscaped arrival, the scale and quality of the home becomes immediately apparent. Inside, soaring ceilings and vast living spaces combine to produce a sense of grandeur whilst over-sized picture windows let light wash through the home allowing full appreciation of the magnificent views across the grounds and over the surrounding countryside.

The principal living spaces are both generous and beautifully executed. A statement kitchen with a substantial island and separate scullery forms the centrepiece, flowing seamlessly through to the dining and living areas, where a feature brick fireplace adds warmth and character.

The connection between indoors and out has been carefully crafted, with expansive doors opening to a series of outdoor living spaces that naturally extend the home's entertaining environment. An inground swimming pool completes the setting, bringing a relaxed resort-style quality to everyday living.

The accommodation is equally impressive, with the master suite enjoying a sense of separation and privacy befitting its purpose. Generously proportioned and opening to its own outdoor retreat, it is complemented by a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. Three additional bedrooms, along with dedicated media and office spaces, provide a versatile arrangement for families at every stage.

Beyond the residence, the grounds make an equally compelling impression. Immaculately manicured lawns, established trees and thoughtfully composed plantings create a sense of maturity and refinement, providing a private setting that complements the home without competing with it. Every aspect of the landscape has been carefully curated, resulting in grounds that are as impressive in presentation as they are enjoyable to live amongst. The property benefits from a share in adjoining land jointly owned by three properties, comprising established native plantings and shared grazing areas, further enhancing the sense of space, privacy, and lifestyle appeal.

Adding significant versatility is the 230sqm (more or less) three-bay Kiwispan shed, offering an entirely different dimension to the property. High-stud construction provides exceptional volume, while the inclusion of a bathroom further enhances its functionality. Whether utilised for recreational pursuits, business interests, additional storage or a dedicated workspace, it represents a valuable addition to an already impressive lifestyle offering.

Combining architectural excellence, beautifully curated grounds and facilities that extend the possibilities of lifestyle living, this exceptional Clevedon property delivers a lifestyle of quality, comfort and versatility, where every detail has been thoughtfully executed and every element contributes to its lasting appeal.

Positioned within the idyllic Clevedon countryside, with local vineyards, the renowned farmers' market, cafés, excellent schooling and recreational amenities all close at hand, the property also enjoys the convenience of being less than an hour from Auckland CBD, Auckland International Airport and Pine Harbour Marina, with ferry services providing easy access across the Hauraki Gulf.
