A French Inspired Country Home Like No Other

Set in the rural landscape, 20 minutes from Havelock North, under Kahuranaki, what stands out with this home is the combination of setting, scale and the high-quality features within. From the three en-suite bedrooms and spacious living areas to the commercial kitchen facilities and surrounding land, this is a country property with a strong sense of purpose and plenty of scope for how it can be enjoyed. This quality-built home provides excellent insulation, protecting from winter chills and additionally keeping the home cool unlike any other in summer.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and formal living area forms the central hub of the home, with doors opening directly outdoors and drawing the surrounding countryside into the living spaces.

The kitchen is truly the homes heart with a large and commercial design, and a walk-through pantry to a second commercial kitchen. Previously used as a French cooking school, this setup offers a level of capability rarely found in a private home and would suit those who enjoy entertaining, catering or simply want an exceptional foodie experience every day.

A large internal access garage, two home office spaces, a dedicated laundry and powder room complete the offering.

The master suite sits within its own wing of the house and is particularly generous, with a walk-in wardrobe, en-suite, claw foot bath and access to its own courtyard area. Two further double bedrooms each have their own ensuite, giving every bedroom private bathroom facilities and genuine separation from guests or family and an Airbnb opportunity.

Doors from the living areas open to sheltered outdoor courtyards, creating an easy transition between the home and its country setting, providing several areas to enjoy the privacy and outlook.

Outside, set on 1 acre (more or less), the property includes two paddocks, a two-bay shed and a chook house, adding to the flexibility of the property for those wanting to make the most of a rural lifestyle. There is an opportunity to extend the land size with boundary adjustments from neighbouring properties.

This quintessential country home offers a strong sense of space, privacy and connection to its surroundings. The home has been designed to make the most of its setting, with generous living areas, excellent indoor-outdoor flow and a range of features that give it genuine versatility.
