Property listing ID: 507469
If it's a wonderful rural lifestyle you are looking for, in a prime Oratia location, look no further. First time on the market in 60 years since the current owners built the original dwelling, set on 2.2 hectares (over 5 acres) of land. Bring your family to this amazing environment, add your own touches and make your own memories. The substantial residence at the end of the sweeping tree studded driveway offers family living at its best. Fabulous indoor-outdoor flow with the kitchen/family room, formal lounge, and two of the four bedrooms opening onto a large north-facing deck, overlooking the lawns with a view to the horizon. Take a walk past the pool and the old tennis court, which you could re-surface and bring back to its former days and wander cross the open spaces, which you could return to grazing pasture. You will fall in love with your very own bush track weaving its way past the ancient Kauri and Rimu trees, Nikau palms, ferns and down beside the stony bottom stream. With bird life in abundance you have a place for rest and relaxation. There are too many extras to describe; huge storage, outbuildings for vehicles and machinery, vegetable gardens and fruit trees. Plus there's the possible subdivision to two sites under the current Oratia Structure Plan (subject to Auckland City Council approval). Located at the lower end of Carter Road you have the benefit of a private rural lifestyle, yet you are only a few minutes drive to the local amenities like the Sunnyvale Train Station, Parrs Park and the Waterhole Swimming Centre. You can enjoy a trip to the Oratia Farmers Market at Artisan Vineyard or a drive to the ever-popular West Coast beaches. Plus you are in zone for the highly sought after Oratia Primary School. The current owners are reluctantly down-sizing and relocating, so don't miss this rare 'opportunity of a lifetime' to own a piece of Oratia's private paradise. Call today for immediate viewing.
