Cottingham Estate is an extraordinary vineyard lifestyle property nestled on 23 hectares in the celebrated Bridge Pa Triangle wine district. With approximately 17 hectares under vine, this picturesque estate grows primarily Syrah, complemented by distinctive varietals like Tempranillo, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Malbec. The vineyard's long-term lease generates a robust, passive income, making this property both an idyllic retreat and a sound investment.
At the heart of the estate stands a grand four-bedroom villa, framed by a classic wrap-around verandah with an elegant bullnose roof. This home's inviting charm makes it equally desirable as a luxurious family residence or premium rental property. Inside, an expansive and thoughtfully designed kitchen opens directly onto the verandah, while an open-plan dining area with a cosy fireplace invites gatherings. The villa boasts two versatile living areas-a formal lounge and a media room equipped with a projector, screen, and surround sound-each offering the option to relax by a wood fire or to open French doors and bi-folds for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Downstairs, three spacious double bedrooms and a family bathroom provide comfort for family or guests, while upstairs, the sumptuous master suite includes a generous walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite bathroom with a spa bath, perfectly positioned to capture serene views.
Beyond the villa, the property features a separate double garage with laundry facilities, a woodshed, and a large American-style barn with a mezzanine floor, providing ample space for storage, creative use, or additional rental income. The grounds include grazing land, sheep and cattle yards, and a loading race, completing this well-rounded lifestyle property. The land here would also be perfect for horses and the equestrian enthusiast. Cottingham Estate's prime location offers swift access to main routes and a breezy 15-minute drive to Hastings or Havelock North, blending rural serenity with urban convenience.
Cottingham Estate presents an exceptional opportunity to embrace vineyard living, whilst benefiting from passive income and the appeal of lifestyle and impressive investment potential.
