Property Description

If you've been dreaming of a home with soul, the kind that wraps you in nostalgia the moment you walk up the verandah steps -
this early 1910s Kauri villa will absolutely steal your heart. Set on 5.3 hectares of gentle rolling land, it's a lifestyle property that
brings together character, space, and the quiet country living so many buyers crave.

From the moment you step inside, the wide, elongated hallway sets the tone. Kauri floors, detailed panelling, arches, and
fretwork, everything here has been lovingly cared for, and it shows. The country-style kitchen and dining room offer that
homestead warmth we all adore, complete with generous storage, plenty of bench space, and a wood burner on wetback, perfect for winter evenings and hearty family meals.
The living room feels like stepping back into a gentler time, with its classic bay window, angled wall, and an open fireplace also
connected to wetback. Close the doors and you have a cosy, private retreat; open the French doors and you're instantly
connected to the covered porch - the most beautiful morning coffee spot you could ask for.

With five generous bedrooms, all featuring authentic sash windows and high stud, each room has its own personality. Several
retain their original open fireplaces with stunning mantels, making this home a wonderful ode to the craftsmanship of the era.
The spacious bathroom is a standout too, boasting a gorgeous claw-foot bath, separate toilet, and that charming villa warmth
that no modern build can replicate.
Practical upgrades have already been taken care of, insulation, rewiring, HRV, and an electric hot water cylinder - giving you
peace of mind while you enjoy the character features.

Outside, the lifestyle magic continues. A collection of outbuildings adds versatility, including three separate rooms: an old time laundry with toilet, a workshop, and an original granary, ideal for storage or functional use. Once used as staff accommodation, these spaces carry a sense of history too. Add to this two single lockable garages, two carports, a wool shed, and you've got a rural setup ready for all sorts of possibilities. The land is simply beautiful. 5.3 hectares of gentle contour with a gravity-fed water source and sweeping country views. Plenty of room for grazing, gardens, pets, or simply soaking up the peaceful surroundings. And despite the privacy, town amenities are just a short drive away.

This is more than a home - it's a lifestyle, a story, and a rare slice of early-1900s craftsmanship waiting for its next guardian. If
you love character villas and have been longing for a country haven with room to breathe, this is one you won't want to miss.
