Nestled at the base of Mount Taranaki, this exceptional lifestyle property offers the perfect blend of
modern luxury and serene country living. Just minutes from Stratford township and sought-after
Pembroke School, this unique estate delivers privacy, beauty, and everyday convenience.
Set on a picturesque riverside section, the gently flowing water wraps around the property, creating
a tranquil and ever-present connection to nature. Terraced gardens lead down to the river's edge,
where you'll find a repurposed outdoor fireplace and a grassed clearing-ideal for camping, pizza
nights, marshmallow toasting, or simply enjoying slow moments with friends and family.
This magical outdoor setting is more than just a place to unwind-it offers real potential as a
wedding venue or event space. With nature as your backdrop, the sound of the river in the
background, and beautifully landscaped grounds all around, the property provides a one-of-a-kind
location for unforgettable celebrations.
From the moment you arrive, the property makes a lasting impression. Established roadside
magnolias welcome you, while a blossom-lined driveway leads toward the home. The entrance,
framed with river boulders and soft grasses, echoes the surrounding landscape and invites you into a
spacious, light-filled home where modern design meets rural elegance.
Clad in timeless board-and-batten, this five-bedroom residence is a contemporary take on the classic
country home. One bedroom is perfectly positioned to serve as a home office or business space,
offering flexibility for remote work or a creative studio.
Entertainers will fall in love with the layout. At the heart of the home is a showstopping kitchen with
an expansive scullery. The kitchen flows naturally into a welcoming dining area and a relaxing coffee
lounge, which opens out to a large, north-facing alfresco space. Here, you'll take in breathtaking
views of Mount Taranaki to the west and Mount Ruapehu to the east. A second lounge/media room
also opens outdoors, providing panoramic mountain views through another oversized alfresco area.
The generous master suite is a private retreat, featuring a spacious bedroom and adjoining lounge
that opens to the riverside garden. With western views of the mountain, this is the perfect place to
unwind. The luxurious ensuite includes bi-fold doors that also open to the garden-perfectly
positioned to soak in the scenery and the gentle sounds of the river.
Additional features include:
• Comfortable paddock with animal shelter - perfect for pets, kids' adventures, or hobby farming
• A 140sqm workshop - fits 5-6 vehicles or ideal for a motorhome, hoist, boat, bus, or home business
• Huge internal-access garage with extensive storage
