Overview

Rata Road's Best-Kept Secret

Privately set beyond a tree-lined driveway, this remarkable property is Rata Road's best-kept secret. A kaleidoscope of colour unfolds as you make your way through the established gardens, revealing an impressive estate of grand proportions, where space, privacy and exceptional versatility come together just moments from the heart of Raumati Beach. Set across approximately 8,700sqm of land, the substantial brick and weatherboard residence offers five bedrooms, two lounges and a formal dining room, providing outstanding flexibility for families, entertaining and those who appreciate room to spread out. A grand entranceway sets the tone, leading into generous interiors where the scale of the home is immediately apparent. The spacious kitchen features a walk-in pantry and plenty of room for everyday family life, while the wood burner creates a warm and inviting atmosphere through the cooler months. Elevated to capture all-day sun, the home also enjoys beautiful outlooks and the opportunity to watch the sun set as planes glide across the sky on their approach to landing. For those needing serious garaging, storage or space to operate a business from home, the possibilities here are exceptional. Alongside the double internal-access garage, a substantial additional garage of approximately 112sqm provides more than three bays of space - a significant asset for anyone with a fleet of work vehicles, trade equipment, machinery, trailers or multiple recreational vehicles. A carport, workshop, woodshed area and extensive storage throughout the home and outbuildings add even more practicality. Whether you run a trade business, manage a fleet of vehicles or simply need room for projects and equipment, this is the kind of infrastructure that is increasingly difficult to find so close to town. Adding to the versatility, a separate room above the garage, complete with a sink, offers exciting potential as a home office, dedicated workspace or flexible-use room. Three-phase power provides further appeal for those requiring additional electrical capacity. Together, these features create an opportunity to explore a work-from-home setup that allows you to keep business operations, vehicles and equipment on your own property, while still enjoying the privacy and space of a substantial lifestyle holding. Beyond the home, the gardens are a destination in their own right. Wander past colourful established plantings to discover a tranquil pond, complete with a wooden bridge leading to a small island. An orchard of established fruit trees, including feijoa, grapefruit, apple, plum and lemon, adds another layer of charm, while the surrounding garden spaces offer endless opportunities to explore, relax and enjoy the outdoors. With land of this scale, there is also the opportunity to investigate subdivision potential, subject to council requirements and the necessary approvals, or simply retain the entire estate as your own private sanctuary. Despite its peaceful, secluded feel, the location is remarkably convenient, with the expressway, schools, shops and train stations all just minutes away, along with nearby walking tracks to enjoy. A property of this scale, character and versatility is a rare find. Whether you are seeking an expansive family retreat, room for extended family, a home base for your business, substantial garaging for a fleet of work vehicles, or the opportunity to investigate future development, this extraordinary Rata Road address delivers a compelling combination of lifestyle, infrastructure and possibility.
