46 Te Horo Beach Road, Te Horo, Kapiti Coast, Wellington

Cross the stream and wind up the hill to an exquisitely set 1900s character home surrounded by lush greenery, grazing paddocks and a multitude of outbuildings. It's the kind of home that makes the heart sing with covered porches you can imagine an evening tipple while the sun goes down through the trees.

Entry is somehow grand and a luscious welcoming hug all at once, with plush Axminster carpet and warm native timber walls. Beautiful character details remain throughout the home, the front living area and lead light windows frame the gingko tree and circular driveway. The kitchen and dining flow out to the north porch and patio where there's plenty of birdsong.

Homes of this era often lack storage, but not in this instance - large cupboards and storage areas are dotted in convenient spots, and there's ample standing room in the attic for overflow at parties!

The exquisite home is only the beginning of the journey here, with eleven green acres with many fenced paddocks, eleven of which are deer fenced. A private spring provides continuous reticulated fresh water. A studio and garage are tucked behind the home, along with an additional high stud double bay garage, another tractor shed, and animal sheds which housed emu in a past life.

Rarely a soul to be seen and so much potential for working the land, growing produce, keeping sheep, raising a family and enjoying the best of rural living in such a brilliant community - plus you're only a short drive or ride to Te Horo beach!

Te Horo is a consistently sought after area for those seeking a fantastic rural lifestyle so close to Wellington.
