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.

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.

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.
