Set back in a quiet cul de sac so close to Waipapa and Kerikeri villages, this beautifully renovated bungalow on 4.7ha comes complete with a well-maintained, burgeoning commercial blueberry orchard.
Turning left as you enter this lovely home, the spacious sunny lounge is the focal point here, where bay windows fill the room with light, and the large wood burner provides comfort and ambience. Beyond this is a dedicated office space (which opens directly onto the deck), a lovely sunroom, a separate dining room and a family room alongside the well-designed kitchen. Adjoining the kitchen is the separate laundry, complete with original wood panelling. A lovely bathroom and three double bedrooms complete the floor plan, including the master, with its own ensuite and french doors. Original rimu flooring and new carpets throughout showcase a perfect combination of character and comfort, with wraparound decking providing great indoor-outdoor flow - allowing you to chase the sun all year round, with plenty of room for pets and play, and a wide variety of fruit trees.
The blueberry operation consists of around 1.65 hectares of mature plants and 0.35 hectares of three year old plants which are coming into production. Generating over $300,000 in turnover, there are 12 main varieties (producing over 16.9 tonnes last season), allowing a staggered harvest from December to the end of March for ease of management. The fully covered block has a commercial irrigation supply and a large packhouse facility including a grading table, automated packing, a separate chiller and a kitchen and bathroom facilities for staff.
71E Keri Downs Road is also zoned for quality schools, with beaches, boat ramps and the Bay of Islands just minutes away. Now is your chance to enjoy all the benefits of an easy lifestyle home and income - call now for more information or to view.
