Where space to breathe meets a life well lived

There are properties that simply feel right from the moment you arrive. This generous Highbrook estate is one of them; the kind of place where children disappear into the garden all afternoon, where weekends slow down to match the pace of the land, and where the whole family gathers easily around the pool as evening light sweeps across sprawling lawns.

Solidly built with plaster over cavity system, the home offers spacious open-plan living and dining flowing seamlessly to an outdoor entertaining zone and swimming pool; ideal for summer fun. A crackling wood burner ensures the cooler months are every bit as enjoyable as summer, while a large second living room (currently in use as a games room) gives teenagers their own retreat without surrendering the main living spaces.

Five generous bedrooms including a master with ensuite ensure the whole family sleeps comfortably. Practical considerations are equally well met; double I/A garaging is supported by a separate oversized double garage-shed complete with additional storage and a carport making it ideal for the boat, the trailer, or the weekend project.

Outside, the grounds are a genuine joy. Landscaped gardens and manicured lawns give way to several paddocks, perfectly suited for a few pet sheep or beefies. Established fruit trees, productive vegetable beds, and a friendly flock of chickens, going with the property, offer children a real connection to the land that no screen can replicate.

Highbrook is a community of like-minded families who value quality, space, and neighbourly warmth. The location offers the best of both worlds; peaceful, private living surrounded by premium homes, with Hamilton’s amenities and schooling a short and easy commute away in one direction and the beaches of Raglan in the other.
