Tree Top Lodge - Owhiwa Road

From the moment you enter the native tree-lined drive, you're welcomed into a truly unique plantation-style retreat. Pause to admire the third tree on the left-a majestic Kauri! This eco-friendly gem is built to last, destined to become a grand old lady long after other homes have faded. Constructed with robust block and brick, featuring precast concrete flooring between its two levels and a concrete-tiled roof, this is a home built to endure the test of time.

Enjoy cost-saving comforts with solar water heating in the summer and a cosy wetback system to keep you warm during the winter months. Tree Top Lodge is more than just a home; it's a haven for families and travellers alike. The guest books bulge with love such as "If silence is golden - then this place is a million dollars."

The top level of the home features a spacious open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, along with three bedrooms, a family bathroom, a separate toilet, and a laundry. The lower level offers a large bedroom with a wet-room ensuite, plus two adjoining rooms with concertina doors that can transform into a vast rumpus or games room. This flexible space is perfect for extended family living, a guest suite, or a hobby haven.

Fruit trees abound on the property, including plums, apples, persimmons, guavas, feijoas, half a dozen mature olive trees, an orange, mandarin, lemon, and the most delicious grapefruit. Slice one in half, lightly drizzle with honey, refrigerate overnight, and wake up to perfection enjoyed on the sweeping deck with stunning views of the Hen and Chickens Islands and the Poor Knights, framed by another native forest vista.

Two adjacent paddocks, complete with stockyards and a loading race, make raising your own livestock or growing your own food a breeze. Additionally, a large shed/workshop conceals a cozy sleepout that could serve as the perfect hobby room or home office.

Tree Top Lodge isn't just a property; it's a lifestyle. Come and experience the magic for yourself. www.rwwhangarei.co.nz/WHC35856
