Country Living with Stream, Bush & Lifestyle Land
Set within the rolling landscape of Hunua, where native bush frames the horizon and birdsong replaces the noise of the city, this is a property shaped as much by lifestyle as it is by land.
Privately positioned across approximately 1.02 hectares, the home has been thoughtfully renovated to create an environment that feels warm, contemporary, and deeply connected to its surroundings. At its centre, the kitchen has been carefully designed by our vendors, balancing practicality with detail, and forming the natural heart of the home. Open-plan living and dining extend effortlessly outward, where large decking creates a place to gather, entertain, or simply sit within the stillness of the landscape.
The accommodation is arranged with flexibility in mind. Three bedrooms are complemented by an additional space currently utilised as a home office, offering the ability to adapt as needs evolve. Whether for remote work, hobbies, or additional living, it adds another layer of functionality without compromising flow.
Beyond the home itself, the land tells its own story. A stream winds through the native bush below, becoming a place of adventure and memory for children over the years. There is a sense of freedom here that feels increasingly rare, where days are shaped by the outdoors, animals can graze in the paddocks, and life moves at a quieter pace. Our vendors have enjoyed raising cows, sheep, and chickens, embracing the simple richness that rural living provides.
The outlook is entirely green, layered with mature planting and native landscape, while the atmosphere remains peaceful and grounded. It is the kind of environment that encourages connection to nature, to family, and to a slower way of living.
Yet despite its sense of retreat, the property remains within reach of Auckland, allowing lifestyle and practicality to coexist with ease.
This is more than a renovated home on lifestyle land. It is a place that offers space to grow, room to breathe, and the opportunity to live in a way that feels increasingly difficult to find.
