Positioned on the northern fringe of Te Awamutu in a quality lifestyle setting against a backdrop of stunning lake views, you’ll find refined lifestyle living.

Completed in 2022 by respected JCB Buillders LTD, the spacious four-bedroom home plus dedicated office has been thoughtfully designed with an emphasis on liveability, privacy and understated luxury. Two distinct living spaces allow the home to adapt with ease to its future owners requirements. The main living area is open, sun-filled and defined by pitched ceilings, creating a sense of volume without excess. A second living room provides a more intimate and comfortable setting, retaining the pitched ceiling detailing, ideal for media, quiet evenings or separation from the main household. Both spaces are equipped with integrated audio solutions, reinforcing the home’s considered functionality.

An inground saltwater swimming pool completes the setting, offering a private and well-resolved outdoor environment.

Located just five minutes from Te Awamutu’s town centre, perfect for grocery runs, great schooling, boutique shopping and a good flat white. Positioned for an easy commute north toward Hamilton and Cambridge.

Opportunities of this nature — combining modern design, enduring views and proximity to key centres — are seldom available. This is a premium lifestyle offering defined by position and long-term appeal, call Sarah today for a full information pack and to make your time to view.

Bonanza

Prepare to be genuinely impressed.

What began as a classic three bedroom, brick and tile Kiwi home positioned proudly on five acres of high, dry, sought after Kumeu land… has evolved into an estate of remarkable scale, comfort, and versatility.

Purchased in 2017, the original residence didn’t simply receive a refresh. It underwent a complete reinvention. Modernised throughout, double glazed, rewired, relined, and thoughtfully rebuilt, the home now delivers contemporary style and future focused living while retaining its rural soul. Even the original garage was not overlooked.

Then came the masterstroke: a consented five bay shed, initially envisioned for work life balance, ultimately transformed into something far more extraordinary.

Today, that expansive structure stands as a luxurious six bedroom residence, showcasing multiple living areas, beautifully appointed bathrooms, generous decking, a pool, and landscaped grounds. It’s an exceptional solution for large families, multi generational living, or those seeking space for extended relatives, an increasingly important priority for many modern and multi cultural households.

Additional features include a two bay workshop complete with a hoist, a registered water bore, a two‑bay carport, well fenced paddocks, and a serene country outlook that captures the essence of Kumeu living.

The scale, the craftsmanship, the possibilities, this is a property that must be experienced in person.

Deadline 11am, Wed 4 Mar '26, NZR, 144 Kimbolton Road, Feilding



If a totally renovated private home, on a larger than typical lifestyle block, sounds like you, this property is a must see.



The character home is set well back from the road nestled beside a large patch of bush, with a vista down to the Rangitikei River valley.



Generously proportioned, the four bedroom plus office home has undergone a major renovation in recent years including: double glazing, new kitchen, bathroom and ensuite, re-wiring, LED lights, new plumbing, new carpet and fully painted inside & out - it feels like a brand new house inside! Wrap around decks invite you outside to enjoy the birdsong.



Around seven hectares is grazable with over half just mown for hay. The fencing is excellent with a great set of modern cattle yards. Stock water is gravity reticulated to troughs.

Situated a comfortable 25 minute country-side commute from Feilding or a 15 minutes to dinner at the Argyle in Hunterville.



With so much new here in recent years, there really is not much to do at all except soak in the peaceful surroundings.
