Accommodation comprises five well-proportioned bedrooms, each with built-in storage. The primary suite is positioned in its own private wing, capturing elevated views across treelined paddocks and rolling countryside. With a refreshed ensuite and excellent storage, it’s a sanctuary designed to start every day with beauty and tranquillity.
A superb semi self-contained wing adds remarkable flexibility, including a bedroom, ensuite, kitchenette and independent access—perfect for multi-generational living, adult children, childcare accommodation or a boarder. The remaining bedrooms are quietly positioned away from the main living areas, ensuring peace and practicality for family living.
The kitchen features stone benchtops, generous storage and a 900mm Westinghouse gas cooker, with natural flow to relaxed living and outdoor spaces. A dedicated dining room and formal living room with woodburner complete a layout that caters to both everyday life and refined entertaining.
Outside, large flat lawns offer space for children to play or present the perfect site for a future pool.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, the location offers excellent convenience: just ten minutes to Pirongia township, under twenty minutes to Te Awamutu and forty minutes to Hamilton City. Surrounded by quality homes, this is an offering seldom found and highly sought after.
After ten wonderful years, our owners are relocating for work—creating a rare opportunity to secure this unique lifestyle before Christmas. Where serenity, space and soul come together. Your chance to make Pirongia paradise your own.
