74C Walter Henry Drive, Lower Kaimai, Western Bay of Plenty, Bay of Plenty

Live in a spacious home with triple garaging and covered outdoor living facing the pool. Graze a few stock in paddocks ideal for beef cattle or horses. Drive to the nearest shopping centre in under 15 minutes.

This versatile 1.9480 hectares (more or less) is on a sunny plateau off a country cul de sac near popular McLaren Falls Park. The solid 278sqm brick home (more or less) was built in 2011 and spreads itself long and low. Central open plan living faces very generous outdoor living protected by a new Archgola canopy and able to be completely enclosed in inclement weather. It fronts a tastefully fenced in ground pool, over which you can see your animals grazing. Afternoon sun floods across this area, particularly in winter.

It’s an ideal home for family or guests with master suite and an adaptable separate second living room one end and family bedrooms the other, a fourth bedroom or office near the main living. The huge triple garaging is a bonus car enthusiasts or tinkerers will appreciate, copious storage too. Your farm based implements/machinery can fill the separate high stud shed with two open bays, animal husbanded helped by the cattle yards.

The five clean, near flat paddocks extend into a ‘dog leg’ one side of the property. Ample scope here to graze the animals of your choice be they for practicality or recreation. Ex farmers will enjoy keeping in touch with the land and equestrians will find a very horse friendly locale with excellent local riding facilities.

Embrace the peace and privacy that rural life provides while welcoming a crowd if you are in social mode. Enjoy your country retreat with the convenience of handy city amenities and the attraction of popular McLaren Falls Park. Tauranga Crossing retail and commercial centre is within minutes, the CBD a little further via the expressway. Proximity to State Highway 29 makes for easy travel over the Kaimai Ranges to the Waikato and beyond.
