About this property
Peaceful, private, stylish rural retreat.French inspired, light, airy, spacious.
Beautiful rural, rustic 4 bedroom home set in rolling hills with tuscanesque views.
Stylishly detailed, French vintage farmhouse Large, light bedrooms.
Indoor / outdoor living. Moroccan courtyard with open fire.
Large covered all weather deck overlooking verdant hillsides.
Lovely walks from the house.
Gorgeous grounds with many vintage , upcycled features.
Set in the middle of Northland to be able to easily access our great Kauri forests and lakes to the west, and magnificent pristine beaches to the east.
Only 2 1/2 hours from Auckland,
Enjoy the peace and silence of this paradise hidden away from the chaos of city life, where only the sounds of native birdsong and the wind in the trees break the silence.
Enjoy a glass of wine under the stars in the courtyard beside the fire, and retire to dreamy bedrooms with beautiful crisp white linen and super comfy beds.
Enjoy a cup of tea and breakfast in the sun on the verandah that opens out from a gorgeous, well-equipped kitchen .
There is also a BBQ available on the deck.
There’s plenty of space for everyone with large organic gardens , and a few acres of bush for the more adventurous kids to explore.
There’s also ample parking.
The living area enjoys an open fire for cosy , winter evenings .
The house is run off the grid as much as possible, and conservation of resources is always a priority.
If you think this is your style, come and enjoy the peace and quiet of uninterrupted solitude, and leave refreshed and recharged.
Whangarei is only 20 minutes away, where there are some beautiful waterside restaurants , cafes , markets, and walkways, gardens and waterfalls.
Whangarei is the gateway to stunning untouched beaches, native forests and an hour away from the Bay of Islands.
We are in the process of building a Hundertwasser centre which will be magnificent when finished.
There is so much on offer here in the north, come and explore, you will be glad you did !!
PLEASE NOTE
There is NO WIFI , laptops etc can be tethered and /or just use phones with data.
Also there are no laundry facilities available , but of course there are laundries in town.
Enough wood will be left for a couple of outdoor fires, extra wood can be purchased at $10 a heaped barrowload :)
No dishwasher is available.
I have a young fox terrier named Banjo, who will be kept with me during your stay, unless of course you are dog people , in which case he is allowed to come and play when invited ;)
While guests occupy my home, ( my personal belongings are in the house but in cupboards, books and games are available for guests’ enjoyment) , I stay on the property in my tiny house, during longer stays, particularly in warmer months , I will discretely tend to my garden, water and mow lawns when necessary , and will endeavour to time it during your absence so as not to disturb your peace and quiet.
Thanks
