Wanting a taste of lifestyle living?

-

Ever dreamed about having a small plot of land, large enough to raise a few chooks, have a flourishin­g vegetable garden, fruit trees and maybe a sheep or two? Space for the children to spread out, play and at the same time be ensconced in nature?

Well now is the time to turn that dream into reality!

With almost an acre to play with, this fantastic property at 265 Taupo Road, Eskdale, Napier, (Hastings district) offers a “mini lifestyle” for those who want to try “living off the land”.

Fully fenced and backing onto an inviting vineyard aspect, there is a rear paddock, perfect for a few chooks and a couple of sheep, plus a freestandi­ng double garage that would be ideal as a workshop or great storage space.

The home is of solid weatherboa­rd constructi­on with wooden joinery and an iron roof.

The interior has been decorated in appealing neutral tones and you are going to love the modern kitchen that was installed just last year. With crisp white cabinetry, white subway tiled walls, under bench oven and a gas hob, this kitchen is waiting for you to add your own splash of colour if you so desire.

The small breakfast bar is a handy addition and the lovely comfortabl­e bench seat off the kitchen is a great spot to kick off your shoes and put your feet up!

The family room is a relaxing space to watch a movie or two and flows out to a small patio, and the large entertaini­ng deck at the rear of the home, just off the kitchen/dining area is perfect to spend many an evening soaking up the valley and vineyard views, as well as enjoying some alfresco dining with family and friends.

There are three good sized bedrooms, all light and airy, with mocha coloured carpet, full length drapes and all serviced by a charming family bathroom. The basis of the garden are the mature trees which are scattered around the property, leaving plenty of opportunit­y for a keen gardener to add their own touch. There is space for some fruit trees and even a small glass house and imagine what a great summer vegetable garden you could develop. You could grow sunflowers along the boundary fence and still have room for flower beds!

There is a double garage close to the house, plenty of off street parking and finding a space to store the firewood won’t be a problem. Dog kennels come with the property so with a bit of luck you will have a mate to round up the sheep!

Situated in the Esk Valley, surrounded by orchards and vines, you will love the friendly Eskdale community.

The popular Eskdale School is less than five minutes away and fresh fruit and produce stalls, wineries and restaurant­s including the Bay View amenities are also well within reach.

Only 10 minutes to the airport and 15 minutes to the Napier CBD, you are away from the hustle and bustle but still within an easy commute.

Come and view this fabulous “good life” opportunit­y and turn your dream into a reality.
