Nothing beats a classic

Originally from the coastal town of Kohimarama in Auckland, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home was relocated to Kerikeri along with a double garage and workshop. Designed in 1949 by the architect A.B Crocombe, this home encompasses the classic old world charm and architecture of the time, along with influences of the classic Californian bungalow. Crocombe designed some of Aucklands historic gems and his work is prominent in St Heliers, Jervois Road and Parnell.

The semi open plan living area is flooded with light and features a bay window plus two French doors which open out onto a north facing deck. The plaster scotia and wooden floors all add to the charm of this home. An additional room to the back of the house is perfect as a family room and study nook. Along with the master bedroom which has an ensuite and walk in wardrobe, these rooms also open out onto the back deck and patio area.

The predominantly flat 1.0130 hectare (more or less) section in the idyllic countryside is the ideal place for animals and to play fetch with your dogs. There is a river with a waterfall on the reserve boundary and the swimming options are numerous, with a small bush 'island' which is surrounded by rapids and swimming holes.

The location is prime situated between Kerikeri and Paihia. Central Kerikeri is only 8.6km and 15km to Paihia, Bay of Islands. Factoring in the property's school zone covers both the Kerikeri Primary and Kerikeri High School zones, this is suited for those with children. For those seeking a smaller school, you can't look past Oromahoe School only 4.1km down the road.

Zoned in Rural Production and over the required land size, with council consent, this property has the possibility for an additional minor residential unit under the FNDC Proposed District Plan.

This home with ample parking is fully consented along with being up to Healthy Homes Standards. The owners are reluctantly selling, providing you the opportunity to secure this BOI lifestyle property.
