150 Taylor Road, Taipa, Far North, Northland, 0483, New Zealand
This superb property offers the promise of an idyllic rural lifestyle with a wonderful out-of-the-way feel while still being close to the beaches and amenities of Doubtless Bay. The property features a spacious 5 bedroom / 2 bathroom home, surrounded by 6.7 hectares of grazing and pasture, streams, and remnant native bush. The home is set back from the road and enjoys all day sunshine and wide elevated views. Spacious indoor and outdoor entertainment areas, and a large gourmet kitchen, are an invitation for dinner parties with friends and relaxed gatherings with extended family.
The 250 sqm family home includes an incredibly spacious open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area with multiple sets of sliding doors and large windows opening to a large north-facing deck that runs the length of the home. The kitchen cabinetry and benchtops have been crafted from native timbers and there is plenty of space for multiple chefs to enjoy cooking together. The western end of the deck is enclosed by a roof, festooned with bougainvillea, established gardens and enjoys superb rural views; a stunning setting for alfresco dining. Adjacent to the main entrance is a second lounge with wood burner that provides a cosy alternative for winter evenings or quiet contemplation. The four family bedrooms are all generous doubles, and the extra-large master bedroom features sliding door access to the front deck, an ensuite bathroom, and a walk-in wardrobe. Built approximately 11 years ago this home achieves a nice balance between modern convenience and rural farmhouse charm. It features double glazing throughout, in-ceiling, external wall and under-floor insulation, and an internal access double garage with laundry. A large gravelled area adjacent and to the rear of the home provides plenty of parking and boat storage space.
