North-facing, beautifully sunny, and with panoramic rural views, this private and peaceful

location is approx. 10km from Taihape.

The 6,705sqm (more or less) property features a cosy one-bedroom cottage with light and

spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas. The bathroom has a shower, vanity

and separate toilet. A freestanding Metro woodburner heats the whole space and there is

plenty of accessible firewood.

A large solid timber double garage and workshop has inbuilt benches and storage and is

fully lockable, with concrete and timber floor. Power is connected, and there is further

storage below. Rainwater is stored in two 22,000 litre tanks, with a third that could be

reconnected.

The original (1910's, with 80s add on) four bedroom farmhouse is not currently habitable. It

has been partially stripped of its scrim and rimu sarking. There is potential to further

recycle its native timbers or renovate.

The grazing land is divided into two paddocks, the larger of which has shade for animals.

Being sheltered from the south, there is potential to plant an orchard or food forest.

Established gardens boast peonies, dahlias, lilies, rhododendrons and camellias. A feijoa

fruits heavily in April/May. Birdlife includes tui, kereru and piwakawaka. Along the western

boundary is an overgrown area, with an original grass tennis court.

In the same family for 100+ years, this slice of history presents abundant options.
