Nestled in the countryside at 355 Grove Road, Te Pahu, this lifestyle retreat offers a true escape - yet is just approximately 18 minutes from the Hamilton City boundary. With breathtaking views of Mount Pirongia and rolling meadows, it delivers peaceful country living without sacrificing convenience.

The beautifully crafted home wrapped in plaster over a cavity system and stylish weather board, features four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two expansive living areas with raked ceilings and exposed timber rafters and beams. At its heart is a new, spacious kitchen with a generous walk-in scullery, centred around a striking enclosed wood fire that warms the main hub. A separate laundry adds practical convenience for everyday family life.

Outdoor living is exceptional. An expansive entertaining deck faces the mountain and features a dual outdoor bath setup - perfect for unwinding under the stars. On the opposite side, a kitchen serving window flows to a covered BBQ area, leading seamlessly to the large saltwater swimming pool with an approximate 2 meter deep end and space for a spa - all privately framed by established roadside landscaping.

Attached to the double garage is a well-designed sleepout, complete with its own ensuite and private deck capturing postcard-perfect views of Pirongia - an ideal retreat for guests, teenagers, or extended family.

For those seeking rural freedom with an off-grid feel, the home is fitted with solar panels and features multiple raised vegetable garden areas. The property includes three paddocks, ideal for livestock or a horse, and is close to trails throughout Pirongia Forest Park, plus walking, jogging, and tramping options for all skill levels. Local schools, community facilities, and a bus stop enhance the family-friendly appeal.

This property is truly a family oasis - a peaceful retreat, an entertainer's dream, and a home you'll be proud to call your own.
