A DESIRABLE COUNTRY RESIDENCE
Price: $550,000
Set in park-like grounds and surrounded by a network of shelter belts this grand country home was built for a prominent landowner almost 80 years ago. Within its Oamaru stone and roughcast exterior there is much to admire including bay windows and decorative plaster ceilings, tiled fireplaces and rimu architraves. To one side of a sunny reception hall is the elegant formal lounge, on the other a magnificent main bedroom. The formal dining room is located further along the central hall and close to the kitchen where an exterior door offers direct access to the garden, a heated swimming pool and rustic summerhouse. Adjoining the kitchen is a cosy sitting area warmed by a free standing log fire. In keeping with its country image a covered walkway extends along the rear of the home offering access to a laundry, shower and toilet and, at the far end, a stylish sauna.
The main bathroom, toilet and a second bedroom are on this level while two more bedrooms, at the top of a rimu staircase, overlook the park-like gardens, where spring bulbs and flowering shrubs are in full bloom. A rose garden, superb specimen trees and a bountiful orchard are welcome extras as are two glass houses and a magnificent walnut tree. The remainder of the 2.0234ha property comprises three paddocks, a selection of outbuildings and three car garaging.
Just minutes from town and with the school bus passing the gate this is a great opportunity to enjoy a country lifestyle that is less than five minutes drive from town.
