If your dream lifestyle includes collecting eggs from your own chickens, growing veggies in raised garden beds, and watching the mist rise over a tranquil river valley dotted with a few grazing sheep and cows each morning, then you’ll love this hidden gem.
Set on 8.51 hectares (more or less) of valley land with three hectares of native bush and the Tahekeroa River winding peacefully through, this property offers the best of both worlds - serene country living in accessible proximity to Silverdale (approx. 19 mins) and Auckland Central (approx. 45 mins).
The elevated 1940s bungalow captures stunning 270-degree rural views and timeless character: native timber floors, coloured glass windows, ornate ceilings, and a cosy log burner for winter nights. Its open-plan layout includes three bedrooms, two toilets, a family bathroom, a home office, scullery and ducted heating and cooling for year-round comfort.
Enjoy morning coffee or sunset wine from the spacious deck overlooking the valley and river below. Explore the land via walking tracks, create a self-sufficient lifestyle with the fruit trees (apple, apricot, peach, nectarine, cherry, avocado), and tend to your raised vegetable gardens.
Outbuildings include a board-and-batten barn with stable doors, a freestanding double garage with mezzanine bedroom, kitchenette and toilet, and ample flat areas for further development. Two water tanks, a fire pit, and endless open skies complete the picture.
This property offers dramatic valley views, rolling green hills, native forest, abundant birdlife, and the gentle sound of the river in the background - a haven of peace and privacy for those seeking to reconnect with nature and embrace a peaceful, more intentional way of living.
Due to a change in circumstances, the property is now priced to sell. Come and experience it for yourself.
