Outside, there is a single standalone garage, a small garden shed, and one paddock, providing space for animals, storage, or future landscaping plans. The scale of the land presents a genuine opportunity to add value.

Location is key. Within walking distance to the Southbridge Domain and local amenities, and only a short drive to Leeston, with easy access through to Rolleston and Hornby, you have the balance of rural outlook and everyday convenience.

This property will appeal to builders, renovators, and buyers who recognise the value of land and are ready to roll up their sleeves. Opportunities with this much space and outlook are becoming increasingly difficult to secure.

For the hobbyist, home business, or those needing additional storage, the three-bay shed with concrete flooring and power is a standout asset, offering practicality and room for tools, toys, or projects. The land itself is exceptionally well set up for lifestyle living, with subdivided paddocks and water troughs fed by the reliable Tuhingamata water scheme -ideal for running a few animals, grazing, or simply enjoying the luxury of open, usable space. Natural shelter created by the contours of the property provides protection from southerly winds, ensuring your outdoor areas remain comfortable and functional across the seasons.

Location is another key advantage, just a short drive to both town and recreational hot spots. Approximately 11 minutes to Taupō and 9 minutes to Kinloch, you’ll enjoy convenient access to shops, schools, cafés, lake activities, walking and biking trails, and the wider Central Plateau. It’s the perfect balance of rural peace with all the benefits of urban living close by.
