Seclusion, style at North Island getaway
A luxury cabin on a grazing and hunting farm in the North Island’s Central Plateau is available for purchase and gives buyers the opportunity to acquire a property that offers guests an unrivalled secluded getaway.
Located at 283 Kaitieke Rd in the small settlement of Raurimu, the property is known as Ringa Kaha and spans 87.68ha.
Sitting high on the landscape with striking views, the lovingly crafted 65sq m board and batten cabin has been cleverly situated to privately bathe in its surroundings. National Park Village is only a short drive away, but the cabin is fully off-grid with solar power, automated backup generator and spring-fed water.
A feature of the property is the area of impressive mature native bush, which provides the gateway to the Erua Forest on the boundary. Stunning views to Taranaki Maunga, Ruapehu, Tongariro and the landscape of rocky outcrops and waterfalls provide limitless options for discerning purchasers. With activities that will appeal to summer and winter travellers, this stunning property possesses a cosiness and spaciousness and the full spectrum of opportunities from peaceful relaxation to wild adventure.
The current owners enjoy a steady rental stream from the property, which has a very high occupancy rate and generates a year-round income.
The landholding, which sits between 600m and 700m above sea level, is split into five paddocks with a mixture of rolling and steep contours.
Hadley Brown, director of rural at Colliers Hawke’s Bay, is marketing the property via tender closing 2pm, Thursday May 23.
Built in 2017, the cabin sleeps up to six people with a considered layout that includes a generous kitchen/ dining area, bathroom, and master and mezzanine bedrooms.
“This dream hideaway offers buyers the chance to enjoy the beauty of Ringa Kaha for themselves while generating income when they are not there through utilising it as an accommodation offering,” Brown says.
