SOLD - Your Sanctuary on Massey
"Te Ara Kereru" (The Flight path of Kereru).
Looking for a 'dream come true' rural sanctuary. Here is one overflowing with rustic charm, surrounded by bush and adjacent to a one hundred acre Kauri reserve.
Developed as a bird sanctuary, this 3.9-hectare property has a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom character villa with much of the original timber paneling, high ceilings, lead light windows and Matai floors. More of that charm can be found in the main bathroom with a period carved vanity and claw-foot bath.
There is a cosy lounge off the open-plan dining/kitchen area and the kitchen has been renovated but retains a rustic feel with its beautifully carved timber bench-top, breakfast bar and large pantry.
A large, west facing sunporch with charming vintage windows looks out on to a native garden and mature trees.
The eastern covered verandah is the prime place to sit and enjoy the stunning views of the sea, Bream Head and the offshore islands.
Hidden in the trees is an enchanting, rustic undocumented cottage. Numerous pathways wind around a large dam with a jetty and bridge. The dam supplies irrigation for plantings and the nursery that previously operated on the property.
There are a single and a double garage and a shade-house/office (once a base for the nursery).
Another native plant garden ringed by two giant Puriri trees - attracts Kereru who use it as a flight path, hence the name Te Ara Kereru. Other multiple bird species abound!
Beyond the dam are some grazing paddocks currently used to graze horses.
Apart from the two paddocks and the large predominantly native "house" garden, the rest of the property is clad in native bush.
There is so much more to see so call me and make a time to see this rare gem of a property.
