Facts at a glance
Snugged into the northern slopes of Mount Pirongia where the panoramic views can only be described as magnificent, is this recently built villa offering an enviable lifestyle for you and your family.
“This one-of-a-kind property spreads over 20ha (more or less) and offers plenty of room to accommodate extended family, so it’s destined to be your forever home,” says marketing agent Mark Frost.
The outstanding villa-styled home is a clever blend of old style and modern convenience and that’s evident as soon as you arrive. The circular driveway gives on to an elegant verandah framed by bay windows either side, and in the middle a beautiful front door.
Symmetry is maintained by repeating the verandah and bay windows on the opposite side of the house.
Large open-plan living areas sit either side of the centrally located kitchen and dining area, all of which overlook or give on to the verandahs and the expansive front lawn, where the panoramic views are simply stunning.
The kitchen itself is an exemplary example of how to blend old with today’s modern requirements. Masses of bench and storage spaces wrap around three sides of this large area, with lower cupboards fronted with glowing timber and, on the upper cupboards, leadlight makes a statement.
The five generous bedrooms and three bathrooms, one of which boasts a clawfoot bath, throughout the house each have their own unique touch. So too, do the hand-crafted leadlight windows which bring light and focus to different areas and they are complimented by the polished South African redwood floors.
However those essential modern elements that make today’s busy lives more comfortable are also incorporated: a large media room, aluminium joinery, four heat pumps, under floor heating, AV and data/sound cabling, sensor functions throughout the home and a hydraulic lift to the four- car garage below.
Situated at the top of the property is a charming onebedroom ply-and-baton cottage ideal for housing extended family. It comes complete with its own generous kitchen, gas burner and deck.
The 20 hectares (more or less) of land is a mixture of native trees and farm land, so there is ample room to build a large shed to house the boat, caravan or you if want to create a home-based business.
“And the unique villa could serve as a fantastic functions retreat or as conference or training facility and the cottage provide a passive income. Like the views, the possibilities here are endless.”
Mount Pirongia is right on the doorstep offering the allure of hiking, hunting and mountain biking and nearby Pirongia Village boasts good schooling, cafes and all the necessary amenities. Te Awamutu and Hamilton are just a short commute away and offer further schooling options and city amenities.
