Considering a country retreat? This should be top of your list to view, in Makaurau

This country retreat was cleverly designed by the current owners to deliver a relaxed lifestyle with room for hobbies and to make the most of the ambiance of the surrounding landscape. Nestled alongside the stream overlooking the lawn and bush outlook you can embrace the natural environment or seize the opportunity to create your own unique space.

Wrap around decks and outdoor speaker system create the perfect atmosphere for entertaining friends and family, relaxing in the spa or star gazing on warm summer evenings. Equipment shed, firewood store and spare water tank provide all the extra functional spaces needed in a lifestyle block.

Inside will impress, the spacious master retreat has a walk in wardrobe and ensuite, and a cleverly designed extra room that closes off, making it perfect as a study, nursery or reflection room. At the opposite end of the home two double bedrooms and a family sized bathroom provide perfect rooms for growing family.

It's the open plan kitchen/living space that truly provides the heart of this home.. A country style kitchen with a modern take on an old fashioned family sized oven and hob, marble bench tops and a scullery. A generous lounge with double height ceilings that's flooded with sunshine through ranch sliders in summer sun and is made cosy by the wood-burner fire in winter.

You'll be proud to share this space with family and friends. This home is special, even the hallways connecting the bedrooms to the living spaces are light filled and a bit of a feature.

Just when you thought you don't need anymore space this home delivers again with a double and single garage, bathroom with laundry and generous work benches.

This home is perfect as is but if you're after an opportunity to make a property your own there scope to do that too. If you can tear yourself away from enjoying it just the way it is first.

Come and view this unique home.
