Refined rural living

Some properties make an impression before you even reach the house. 161 Tahuroa Road is one of them.

Rarely does a property this conveniently located offer such an exceptional sense of space and privacy. Set across approximately 1.6 hectares of fertile land, this is a place where the lifestyle dream feels wonderfully achievable. There's room for a few sheep or cattle, space for children to roam and explore, and the freedom to enjoy country life without taking on the demands of a much larger rural holding.

Picture slow mornings overlooking the fields, afternoons spent in the garden and long evenings relaxing on the deck as the countryside stretches out before you. Established gardens and fruit trees add to the charm, while the land offers space to grow, play and create the lifestyle you've always imagined. It feels peaceful and private, yet Cambridge, Hamilton and Morrinsville remain conveniently within reach.

Nothing says welcome home like the oak-lined driveway, with fields on either side, it creates a great sense of arrival. With expansive rural views stretching out around you, it's easy to see why this is such a special property.

Originally built in the 1960s, the home has been beautifully transformed. Thoughtful design and the considered retention of period features come together to create a stylish yet relaxed rural home.

Step inside and the kitchen is an absolute standout. Bespoke stone benchtops waterfall down the sides of the island, creating a stunning centerpiece, while designer finishes and a carefully considered layout make the space as practical as it is beautiful.
The bathrooms are equally impressive, with exquisite tiling, beautiful fittings and a genuine sense of luxury.
Double glazing and ducted heating throughout ensure year-round comfort, while the home's flexible layout works wonderfully for families, guests or simply those wanting space of their own.

The private master suite is a retreat in every sense, complete with a walk-in robe and a stunning ensuite featuring stone basins, gorgeous tiles and a beautiful bathtub. A second generous double bedroom is also located on this level.

Downstairs, a separate wing provides two further bedrooms, its own living area, bathroom and a substantial utility room, with direct access to a private outdoor space. It's a fantastic setup for teenagers, extended family, guests or anyone wanting a little more independence.

Outside, large shedding provides excellent storage and practical space, while there is plenty of scope to add a pool and create an exceptional outdoor entertaining area.

And then there are those views, open countryside, fields all around and a sense of peace that makes you feel a world away from the everyday.

Refined, comfortable and surrounded by countryside, 161 Tahuroa Road offers the best of both worlds: a beautifully transformed home, the freedom of 1.6 hectares (more or less) and an idyllic rural lifestyle without sacrificing convenience.

Colonial farmhouse on country estate

Deadline Sale - 1pm, Wed 4 Nov 2026 (unless sold prior)

Rural capability is comprehensively covered by a woolshed, stable/implement shed, five-bay garage/workshop and boat/tractor/storage shed, while stock are equally well catered for through secure fencing and dedicated cattle yards. A strong water set-up combines approximately 5,000 litres per day of council supply with around 60,000 litres of tank capacity, keeping supply well covered across the property.

Two road frontages give the property additional profile, with Cust Village sitting around five minutes away and Rangiora approximately 15 minutes away, keeping rural life well connected to everyday essentials.

With its character home, unforgettable grounds and substantial rural scale, this is country living played out on significantly greater ground.

Lifestyle living without limits

Architecture, accommodation and recreation converge at an extraordinary level on this 2.5-hectare estate (6.2 acres approx.), where a Herbst designed residence leads a multi-generational lifestyle of remarkable reach. Living arrangements are layered across the property to exceptional effect, with the main residence, a separate dwelling and more, giving everyone their own place to call home.

Contemporary, light-filled and luxuriously proportioned, the main residence uses timber to striking effect both underfoot and overhead, while expansive glazing turns the surrounding landscape into a showcase of shifting views. Living claims considerable ground, with two distinct areas giving larger gatherings and quieter moments their own quarters. The kitchen naturally claims the social centre, with a striking window splashback carrying that connection to the outside. A master suite where the walk-through ensuite and direct access to an indoor-outdoor wellness room bring another level of luxury with a spa, sauna, massage chair and sweeping views giving the suite genuine sanctuary status.

Leisure is laid on at resort level, with sun-soaked decking extending the living outdoors, a heated mosaic pool seamlessly concealed beneath an electric timber cover and a newly built tennis court serving up its own covered pavilion and Rolex courtside clock. Two feature ponds bring another dimension to the grounds, while the potager garden and outdoor pizza oven elevate entertaining into an occasion.

The property's residential reach extends considerably further, with a two bedroom second dwelling boosting its own driveway entrance, plus further options to explore. Garaging and utility space receive an exceptional allocation, with the triple garage alongside a three bay 190 sqm (approx) barn exceeding 4.2 metres in stud height and complete with a workshop and car hoist, putting larger vehicles, machinery and projects on purpose-built ground. This beautiful acerage is serviced by a water bore and holds potential for subdivision, subject to the necessary approvals, adding another valuable card to an already impressive lifestyle hand.

Despite its sense of escape, Albany is a mere 10 minutes' drive, keeping shopping, excellent schools and motorway connections firmly on the radar.

Call Ailsa or Chelsea for more information or to view.

Your Country Estate

Introducing a country lifestyle on an entirely different scale. On 2.4294ha (more or less), and located between Tamahere and Cambridge, we bring you an architectural 393sqm (more or less) home of grand proportions, a 260sqm (more or less) shed, heated inground pool, and three large paddocks beautifully fenced in post and rail and dotted with mature trees and hedging.

The arrival is enough to know that something impressive awaits. Off a quiet, no exit lane, and through automated entrance gates, your drive then takes you under a canopy of cherry trees to your country estate.

The scale of this home, in solid, and timeless honed Hinuera stone, and the high standard that it has been built to, will create a forever home feel for your family. Step inside and the sense of grandeur continues, with high ceilings and open plan kitchen, dining and living that flows through to a cosy evening room, complete with large open fireplace, kept distinct by oversized bespoke steel framed glass doors, offering the flexibility to close off the space when the occasion calls for it, while preserving the light, openness and connection to the rest of the home. Well in proportion to the living zones, the home features a master wing, with nearby office. The guest wing is perfect for growing children, or visiting guests with two bathrooms (including a Jack and Jill ensuite) and a media room. There is even a large loft bedroom which will be the dream of any teenager!

Opening up to large, covered outdoor entertaining, hosting can take many forms, from alfresco dining, pool parties, pizza nights and extended family gatherings.

Beyond it all, paddocks offer room for stock, space for children to explore and perhaps even a few motorbike adventures. Whether you’re raising a family, accommodating teenagers who need room to roam, or stepping into retirement without leaving the rural lifestyle behind, there’s space here for life to unfold on your terms.

Peaceful, yet connected, large scale yet proportionate. Bring the family, bring the toys, bring the dreams!
