194 Otaua Road, Taheke,
Kaikohe, Far North District

Our owner wants to move on with the next phase of his life and is ready to talk to you.

Properties in this area rarely come up for sale - this one has had the same owner for over 45 years!!!

Initially escaping Auckland to bring up the family in a rural environment, this property has served our owner well. It has fulfilled those initial aspirations he had of a more wholesome rural lifestyle with his family and, it has allowed him to indulge in his passion for "big boys' toys" - he's got the shed to prove it!

The house is perched on top of a hill allowing you to view most of the property from the home section. There is another shed here as well - ideal for all kinds of hobbies, or just additional covered parking. While the exterior of the house has seen better days and needs an investment of time and energy to bring it back to its former glory, it still has the charm that comes with an older home and a comfortable feel inside. The bedrooms are a good size, with a bathroom in the middle of the house, and a separate shower room and toilet at the rear. The kitchen has been modernised several years ago and has the added benefit of a greenhouse window facing onto the large deck that is accessed from the lounge - making this an ideal place to entertain, particularly in summer. The west-facing view takes in the Otaua/Punakitere Valley and bears witness to some pretty awesome sunsets! Currently tenanted, they may be willing to stay on.

While the house is serviced with a 30,000-litre water tank, the Mangatawa stream runs through the property making getting water to stock relatively easy. A neighbour currently leases the land, keeping the hill paddocks grazed and puts the 4 large paddocks on the flats into maize over the summer. Stockyards and a small sheep shed complete the picture.
