If you yearn for country lifestyle, near some of this country's best nature marvels; plus an accessible price point; here's your answer.

Nestled on the fringe of Otorohanga, five minutes from the village, you'll be on the doorstep of the town's famous kiwi house; with its kiwi, native bird park, wetlands and wildlife enclosures. Waitomo Caves are around half an hour away; yet another nature marvel and somewhere your kids can learn to preserve and protect as they grow and discover what country life is all about.

Near-new, this home sits on 5,900sqm (more or less) of open space. A huge shed offers limitless opportunities and there's a paddock for the horse or some livestock. Something for everyone and surprises that delight. The home might present a modest face as you drive in. What it showcases however, is a masterful mix of contemporary flair and minimalist care.

Double glazed, sunny and bright, it revolves around outdoor flow with open-plan living in the heart of the home to connect closely with bedrooms either side. The ensuite master, with its walk-in dressing room enjoys privacy, while the remaining two bedrooms tuck on the other side.

The classic blend of black and white, with accents in between, dominates the décor and clever finish. It's country styling that never dates and gives you scope to grow and expand in your own way. As the home slips out into the sun for barbecue relaxation and playground fun, clever design again highlights the country touch, as steps lead up through native gardens to vege plots for fresh herb and greens.

Grow more gardens, bring the animals, build a playground, put in a pool; the potential is up to your imagination. Especially this shed. Three bays, space to work, store classic cars, create a gym; it's up to you.

Mere minutes to Otorohanga, near popular Kio Kio School, 20 minutes to Te Awamutu and keenly priced. What are you waiting for? Call Amy and change your life.
