Your own riverside sanctuary

There are properties that simply offer space, and then there are those that offer an entirely different way of living. Set on 1.69 hectares of beautifully established grounds with approximately 600 metres of river frontage, this remarkable lifestyle retreat is a place where privacy, nature and everyday comfort come together in perfect harmony. Positioned to embrace all-day sun and picturesque views across the river and neighbouring farmland, the home enjoys an ever-changing backdrop of flowing water, native birdlife and peaceful surroundings. Whether you're enjoying a quiet morning coffee or entertaining family and friends on the expansive deck, every corner of this property invites you to slow down and appreciate its exceptional setting. Designed to make the most of its idyllic surroundings, large doors connect every bedroom to the outdoors, creating a seamless flow between home and nature. Inside, the home features a contemporary kitchen and bathrooms, complemented by thoughtful additions that enhance comfort and efficiency. A wood burner and a biofuel fireplace create a warm and inviting atmosphere, while a substantial solar power system helps reduce running costs and DVS ventilation ensures year-round comfort. A dedicated EV charger offers convenient at-home vehicle charging, and the satellite internet system provides reliable high-speed connectivity. Outside, the spa pool and established fruit and nut trees create the perfect setting for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings, while the securely fenced lawn provides a safe space for children and pets. Despite its peaceful seclusion, convenience remains close at hand. Kerikeri is just 7 kilometres away, with Waipapa only 7.5 kilometres in the opposite direction, making everyday amenities effortlessly accessible. Properties offering this level of privacy, natural beauty and riverside living are incredibly rare.
