A larger tract of land, (19.8 ha.), "High Grove" Farm, so close to Auckland.
Farming at its best in Karaka - Picturesque contemporary villa with stables, workshop, shedding and self-contained guest accommodation. Interest over $3.7 million.
With an elevated outlook over Karaka countryside, this stunning 330m2 replica Villa (built in 2007) is artfully designed for entertaining with style. The open plan kitchen (with huge scullery) and family room flow into formal dining and lounge, all with sweeping northfacing views. Step out to the sunny full-length classic verandah to enjoy evenings outdoors with views out to the Manukau Harbour and Skytower.
Authentic recycled kauri floors and a gentle elegance blend easily with all the modern amenities you expect from a solid new home, including double glazing, insulation, heat transfer system, and quality fixtures. Beautifully presented with four bedrooms plus study/storage room, the light-filled master suite includes a walk-in-wardrobe, spacious ensuite, and doors opening out to the verandah.
Farming is made easy at 'High Grove Farm' with a clever set-up configured to be run by just 1-2 people. Offering all the space and functionality needed for serious farming (19.86ha), this thoughtfully designed layout includes 25 well-raced paddocks, 8 covered yards, 70 x 70m grass arena, 4 bay shed with feed room and tack room, and 8 tie up stalls with a washdown area. The barn/stable complex includes spacious self-contained accommodation, ideal for extended family or farm workers. Plus 2 x bay hay shed at the end of the race for easy access to hay in the winter.
Bring all ideas when viewing - this is a versatile property that is completely set up for farming yet full of potential. Previously run as an equestrian business, there is plenty of space and scope to add a dressage or jumping arena, or run sheep or cattle. The arable soil is ideal for cropping, and there has been an avocado farm on site in the past. Mature, easy-care landscaping includes clipped hedging and specimen English trees lining beautifully planted waterways and a 1km 'bridle path', ideal for exercising young horses or dogs.
With its replica villa charm alongside all the reassurance that comes from living in a meticulously maintained modern home, this unique property is immersed in peaceful country ambiance at the end of a tree-lined drive just 16km from the southern motorway.
Properties of this calibre in popular Karaka are rare and the owners are ready to down-size - bring the family and view today.
