Properties of this calibre are tightly held, making this your chance to enjoy the privacy, scale and flexibility that so many buyers dream of. Hidden behind electric gates, a picturesque tree-lined driveway leads you through beautifully established grounds to a home that immediately commands attention. Positioned proudly on 2.468 hectares of elevated land, this is a property that delivers complete privacy while offering an unforgettable sense of arrival. Inside, the grand entrance is every bit as impressive. A sweeping staircase, beautiful rimu flooring and carefully selected crystal lighting create a home that feels both elegant and welcoming from the moment you step through the door. Designed with families and entertaining in mind, the home offers multiple living spaces that can be opened up for larger gatherings or closed off for quieter evenings. Expansive decking extends the living outdoors, creating seamless spaces for summer entertaining, family celebrations or simply soaking in the peaceful rural outlook. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home. Centred around a stunning granite island, it's a space where family naturally gathers, conversations happen and everyday living comes together with ease. Built from timeless brick and cedar, the home combines classic style with enduring quality. Upstairs, the light-filled primary suite enjoys beautiful views across the surrounding countryside, while two additional bedrooms complete this peaceful accommodation wing. For those needing extra flexibility, a separate wing above the garage provides its own bedroom and bathroom, making it ideal for extended family, teenagers wanting their own space, guests or even a work-from-home setup.. Practicality hasn't been overlooked either, with triple internal-access garaging, a workshop, extensive off-street parking and plenty of room for boats, motorhomes or additional vehicles. Outside, the grounds are equally impressive. A beautiful balance of mature native bush and open grazing land creates an idyllic lifestyle setting, while still leaving scope to add a pool, expand the gardens or further personalise the estate over time. Only around 20 minutes from Albany, you'll enjoy the convenience of city access while feeling completely removed from the pace of everyday life. Grand yet welcoming, private yet incredibly versatile, this is a lifestyle property that offers so much more than just a beautiful home
