A magnificent tree-lined entrance leads to a sweeping driveway, setting the tone for the serenity and grandeur that awaits and just 10 minutes from Upper Hutt CBD and 38kms to Wellington. Step inside, and you will be captivated by the seamless blend of elegance and comfort. North facing, the expansive windows frame uninterrupted views of rolling hills, endless skies, and the tranquil river. Open plan living and dining bathe in natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere that extends onto a deck with sleek glass balustrades for uninterrupted views. Perfect for entertaining, the outdoor area includes a covered pergola, ensuring year-round enjoyment. The heart of the home, a modern kitchen, is designed for both functionality and style. An office nook provides a space for work or study, while the warmth of a woodburner with a striking schist floor to ceiling surround makes for cozy winter evenings. Fully insulated and double-glazed, the home also features a heat pump, heat transfer system, and gas infinity hot water for year-round comfort. The private adult suite is a true haven, featuring a generous walk-in wardrobe, an ensuite, and direct access to the deck, where drop-down blinds offer both shade and privacy. The thoughtfully designed family wing includes two double bedrooms and a beautifully tiled bathroom, ensuring space and comfort for all. Downstairs, a versatile rumpus, gaming room or art studio with water and separate access provides endless possibilities - whether as a work-from-home space, guest retreat, or hobbies room. Outside, the property boasts established gardens, a spa pool area, and an orchard offering a variety of seasonal fruit. A sealed bush walk winds through the grounds, leading to picturesque swimming holes and tranquil spots for quiet reflection. A workshop under the house, a garden irrigation system with a 25,000-litre water tank, and an emergency generator add to the home's practicality. The large double garage features an additional workshop and a separate w.c., while ample off-street parking ensures convenience for family and guests. The property also benefits from town water supply. For those with a love of sustainable living, a hen house, woodshed, garden shed, and greenhouse provide the perfect setup for self-sufficiency. This is more than a home - it's a lifestyle. A rare offering where privacy, quality, and nature unite in perfect harmony. Experience the magic of this riverside retreat and make it your own.

Buyer's review

Huge thanks for helping us buy our new home.

We are thrilled and relieved to have finally purchased our new home after almost a year of searching. Feeling quite jaded we made a time to view this new home, that seemed to tick most of our home buying boxes. From our first contact with both Lesley and Steve of Sotheby's, it was obvious that they had the experience and knowledge required to help guide us through the tendering process, which we knew had the potential to be very stressful. Lesley and Steve promptly responded to our queries and supplied us with all the relevant information at hand. Coincidentally, a family member had previously had some dealings with Lesley in the past and raved about her open and friendly manner, she didn't disappoint. We would absolutely recommend both Lesley and Steve and if needed (hopefully not for another 20 years) we would not hesitate to contact them.
