Set on approximately 1.07 hectares in an elevated Taupaki position, this extensively renovated lifestyle property combines generous, highly usable land, sweeping rural views and established privacy with the convenience of Auckland's growing northwest close at hand.
Predominantly level with only a gentle contour, the land is a real feature of the property. Mature trees and established planting provide privacy and shelter, while open areas offer plenty of room for children and pets, entertaining, gardening or simply enjoying the space. New post-and-rail fencing adds to the rural character and gives the property a smart, established finish.
The approximately 200sqm home has been extensively renovated and upgraded, creating a warm and distinctive family home that retains plenty of country character. Timber-lined ceilings, generous rooms and excellent natural light are complemented by a large new kitchen, engineered timber flooring, quality carpet and a refreshed bathroom with separate bath and shower.
Practical improvements have been equally well considered, including a new hot-water cylinder, upgraded water-pressure system, renewed window seals and fittings, and a quality wood burner with integrated wetback for added warmth and efficiency through the cooler months. The exterior of the home and garage has also been refreshed, with a specialist flexible exterior coating system and the metal roofs of the house, garage and workshop serviced and repainted.
One of the standout features is the approximately 70sqm upper loft. Timber-lined sloping ceilings, large windows at both ends and built-in eaves storage create a character-filled space with enormous flexibility. Use it as a second living area, home office, games or family room, creative space, retreat or hobby room - there is room to make it work around your lifestyle.
And the extra space doesn't stop there.
A separate approximately 40sqm double garage is internally lined and enjoys plenty of natural light, while a covered carport beside the home provides additional sheltered parking. There is also a separate consented approximately 70sqm workshop, offering substantial room for vehicles, tools and equipment, storage, a working workshop or personal projects.
Two private entrances add another level of practicality, with one serving the home and the second providing access to the workshop area. Generous off-street parking makes it easy to accommodate family and guests, additional vehicles, a boat or motorhome.
The size and gentle contour of the land also provide flexibility for the future, including potential for additional accommodation or a minor dwelling, subject to the relevant planning and building requirements.
For all its rural character, this is not a property that leaves you disconnected from everyday life. Taupaki School, Kumeu and Riverhead are nearby, along with Soljans Estate Winery, Boric Food Market and Hallertau Brewery & Biergarten. Westgate, NorthWest Shopping Centre and Costco provide easy access to major shopping and services, while Muriwai Beach is within easy reach when it's time to escape to the coast.
With approximately 200sqm of home, an expansive upper level, separate double garage, large consented workshop and around 1.07 hectares of usable land, this is far more than simply a three-bedroom home. It's a lifestyle property with room for family, work, hobbies, vehicles and whatever comes next.
With Auckland's northwest continuing to grow and develop, there is also long-term appeal in owning a substantial lifestyle property on the city's rural fringe.
Come and experience the views, privacy and sense of space for yourself.
