10 Valencia Lane, Kerikeri, Far North, Northland

Providing an exceptional canvas for those seeking a more rural escape, this property sits on a sprawling 2.5675ha piece of land (more or less). Coming down the driveway, you'll discover a charming rustic cottage that offers not just a house but a home. As you approach, you're greeted by the two-bay carport, through this you'll discover the front door, nestled within the old-style porch.

Once inside, relish in the ambiance created by the wood-burning fireplace, a centrepiece that infuses both warmth and character into the open plan living areas, as well as the three bedrooms. A hallmark of character homes often includes high ceilings, a distinctive feature that this home graciously boasts. It's also worth noting that there's a sizeable veranda which sits just off the main living area, this so ideal for evening barbecues, taking in the views from the wooded slope down to the paddock and beyond.

The land unfolds like a verdant tapestry, featuring a generously sized paddock which is great for small livestock. A scenic trek through the wooded slope eventually reveals a hidden gem- the tranquil stream... this is located at the bottom of the property at its lower reaches. Adjacent to this property is a waterfall, discreetly tucked away to provide a glimpse of natural beauty, all within a protected sanctuary.

This property is in a prime location, within a driving distance to Kerikeri, Waipapa and the Bay of Islands airport. Here, you'll experience the best of both worlds-an escape to a laid back lifestyle coupled with access to amenities and services. Moreover, it falls within the boundaries of local school zones, ensuring that educational facilities are readily accessible for families.

This property transcends mere real estate; so here's your chance to add your own personal touch and immerse yourself in what this charming property has to offer.
