What's around 7A Limbrick Street

By Joves - anyone for Tennis?

“Strathmore”, once known as Abbotsford Homestead, is an exceptional English inspired residence displaying timeless charm, lasting character and sophisticated elegance at every glance. Privately situated on more than 5,000 sq m (more or less) of immaculately landscaped grounds, this two level masterpiece offers an increasingly rare opportunity to become the custodian of a remarkable piece of Hawke’s Bay history. Positioned well away from the road and reached by a discreet driveway, the home has remained tightly treasured by one family for generations. Rich in history and reminiscent of a bygone age, it proudly reveals exquisite original detailing including rich timber panelling, intricate leadlight windows and a magnificent staircase that instantly introduces the homes enduring appeal. The impressive formal foyer greets you beneath an octagonal ceiling crowned with a refined chandelier that hints at the scale and sophistication throughout. Upstairs, generously scaled bedrooms are filled with natural light and provide a feeling of space seldom experienced today. Downstairs forms the centre of the home where a contemporary kitchen with adjoining scullery connects effortlessly to a welcoming family room, perfect for relaxed everyday living. A formal dining room once alive with spirited billiard games, now lends itself beautifully to entertaining or unforgettable gatherings. Solid timber bi-fold doors allow the additional living areas to adapt seamlessly, from intimate retreat to expansive entertaining zone. Outside, the experience is equally impressive. A sheltered verandah delivers year round covered outdoor living with potential for an outdoor kitchen. Host unforgettable occasions beside the swimming pool or unwind while enjoying a match on your own private tennis court. Wander through established gardens where every turn uncovers a feature, from secluded seating spaces and a tranquil pond to shaded dovecotes beneath mature trees. Extensive parking is available with multiple carports, a small car shed and additional storage. Whether hosting grand garden parties, creating treasured family memories or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of an extraordinary home, “Strathmore” offers a lifestyle few properties can ever replicate. This is more than a residence; it is a legacy, an iconic Waipawa landmark and the rare privilege of becoming its next custodian, protecting its history while creating your own. Private, stately and exceptionally rare, opportunities like this truly are like gold dust.
