Here's a property that refuses to be ordinary. At 629 Tauwhare Road, you'll find a classic character home with native timber floors and all the charm you'd expect, but dressed up with modern essentials, double glazing, full insulation, and heat pumps. The open plan kitchen and living area offers relaxed living with wonderful rural outlooks. Step onto the covered deck area to enjoy afternoon drinks while savouring magnificent sunsets. This home has an old soul with a new heart. Next door is a near-new two-bedroom dwelling that is flexible to your needs - extended family, guests, or income. You choose. The current tenants have indicated they would love to stay so the income flow continues. Add in serious shedding and you've got space to tinker, store, or launch that side hustle you've been dreaming about. Step outside and the lifestyle unfolds: an orchard bursting with fruit, raised gardens for fresh harvests, dog-proof fencing for your four-legged friends, and paddock space for a pony or a few farm animals. There's even room left for the pool you've always promised yourself. And location? You're rubbing shoulders with the exclusive Millpark Lane subdivision and the Matangi Hillcrest Sports Club - so while you're living the country dream, you're never far from the action. Plus, you're zoned for Berkley Intermediate and Hillcrest High - schools with reputations as solid as the timber in those floors. This isn't just a property. It's options, lifestyle, and opportunity all rolled into one. Grab it before someone else does.
