Just over one hectare, located in the prime Tamahere locale, this is the quintessential family home that combines plenty of space, both internal and outdoors, that will suit any family needs. The benefits of this property are best summarised as - gully setting, in excess of 300m2 of family living, swimming pool, privacy, plenty of parking for family and guests, and circular driveway for easy access. A huge attraction of this property is the gully system at the back of the property, planted mainly in natives and accessible via a formed pathway, with the meandering stream wandering its way through. The cheeky entertainers - the Tuis - are here in abundance, and not to be missed are the agile Kaka paying visits to the property. The chorus of the Tuis is something to behold, and will surely please nature lovers. The brick and tile dwelling is set well back from the road down a driveway framed with deciduous trees, and is designed for a large family, with even a commodious sized sleepout/games room with its own ensuite - maybe a place for extended family. Internally there are five bedrooms and a large office, family bathroom plus master ensuite, sunny and spacious living areas including an open plan zone plus a closed off lounge for formal occasions. The living areas spill out to the outdoor entertainment areas and expansive lawns. For the automobiles, there is a stand-alone double garage/workshop, plus the breezeway for sheltered parking. Views from the house are not hampered by clustered plantings adjacent to the house - rather the area is designed for maximum enjoyment without the need of constant attention, but for the tools you'll need and space for the lawnmower, there is a garden shed. Our vendors have raised their family here, are downsizing and moving on. Essential viewing in this desirable location, zoned for quality schooling.
