PLUS LARGE GARAGE (POTENTIAL FOR FURTHER ACCOMMODATION), AND SHEDDING

'Waimarie Estate' is nestled behind a beautiful gated entrance of solid brick pillars and along a picturesque tree-lined driveway, bordered by pretty ponds sits this character colonial villa on 10.2 acres (4 ha).

Gracefully positioned in the best part of the renowned Ararimu Valley, the property has all the peace and privacy country living offers. The home is positioned to capture all day sun and the wraparound deck which encompasses this home is ideal for entertaining and alfresco dining, while taking in the views of the gorgeous countryside. This family home has a very special ambience, only a villa of this vintage can have.

There are four elegantly appointed bedrooms along with a dining room and living room that opens to huge return verandahs. The traditional country kitchen also retains the lovely colonial character, and the warm glow from the stunning polished native timber floors really adds to the ambience. As you walk back inside, you will look up and admire the high stud and the unique native timber ceilings with ornate fretwork centre pieces. Lovely reminders of yesteryear.

Alongside the home is a magnificent six car garage with bathroom, and upstairs is a large loft studio. Great for guests and further potential for accommodation, or the option to run a business.

There is a 12x18m implement shed, ideal for those 'extra' cars or machinery, or perhaps a conversion to stables. The land is flat to rolling, great for horses or any lifestyle animal. The children will have hours of fun and pleasure with the superb trees, ponds to fish in, so many adventures to be had here.

A friendly, caring community and just a mere seven minutes to the Ramarama motorway, and thirty minutes to the Auckland International Airport. School bus for Strathallan picks up at the end of the road with the local primary school and hall just down the road.

After many years of enjoyment with family who have now grown up and left home, it is now time for a new family to start wonderful new memories. Treat yourselves and escape to the idyllic country living.

'Waimaire Estate - Peaceful Waters' is calling... don't delay your inspection of this once in a lifetime property.
