Set on just under one hectare of gently sloping pasture, this character filled home offers an authentic piece of country heritage that balances rural peace with practical convenience. Here's your affordable entry point into the lifestyle market where you can roll up your sleeves and add real value! The home welcomes you with an authentic farmhouse feel. A separate open plan living and dining space, plus a separate kitchen complete with pantry. The kitchen features a breakfast bar, flowing smoothly out to a generous wrap around deck. Accommodation includes two double bedrooms at the front and a single bedroom with a built-in wardrobe at the back, serviced by a family bathroom and a seperate toilet. The main bedroom opens up to the deck via french doors. The large mudroom and laundry features direct access to the back yard. Given the home's classic age, there is clear scope for renovation and modernisation, allowing you to personalise the spaces in your own time. For the hobbyist or tradie, a large four bay shed stands ready for your vehicles and toys plus with an extra lock up storage room. The land is a fully realised mini lifestyle dream. The land is perfectly suited for grazing a few sheep, horses, or calves, while the orchard stands ready to provide grapefruits, feijoas, peaches, apples, and figs alongside existing vegetable garden beds. There is also plenty of space for chickens or goats! While the setting feels entirely rural, you are never isolated. Daily life remains easy with local schools and shops roughly 8 minutes drive from your gate, and Wellsford and State Highway 1 under 10 minutes away and the rugby field just down the road. Port Albert around the corner has the jetty for launching your boat, shop for getting fish 'n chips and the Hall for going to the odd market day. Plus, with the Warkworth motorway extension open, connecting to the North Shore or Auckland City is easier than ever. Get in touch to view this unique slice of country paradise!
