57 McCaughan Road, Kerikeri, Far North

Wonderful lifestyle, by the river

Introducing a fantastic opportunity to secure the best of countryside living in a convenient location. Positioned just 3.2km from Waipapa and 9.2km from Kerikeri, this stately home with a large shed and greenhouse, should be seen today.

Across the 1.704-hectare site is a wonderland of greenery, mature trees, rock terraces, gardens and edibles, making this property visually charming, private and retreatlike.

A lifestyle property with a capital L… truly, so much to enjoy! Split into four key zones: the house & shed zone, plus three additional paddock blocks, with a picturesque driveway running through the centre. Set on the riverside, what more could you want!

#57 has tremendous architectural merit, with interesting lines, high stud ceilings, split levels, large picture frame windows, timeless brick cladding, and a tiled roof.

This robust forever home also has striking internal features such as macrocarpa timber ceilings and hardwood floors, inviting you indoors to find out more. Bespoke cabinetry, including library shelves in the living area, keeps this home full of personality. An additional stand out feature is the stain glass windows depicting the Waipapa River, along with a Koru.

The kitchen has been well-designed for plenty of storage and countertop space, and check out the glass cabinetry - stylish and functional for entertaining!

Two living rooms and a dedicated dining area make the layout excellent for sharing with family and friends. Enormous wraparound decks looking out over the river add to the magic and are enticing for a party! A wood burner in the living area and a heat pump keep this home comfortable year-round.

Back outdoors, the 3-bay shed is 12 x 9.6m with solar panels - what a huge bonus for lucky new owners. The vegetable gardens, generous greenhouse, and irrigation system are also fantastic for sustainable living.

Completing the picture of a stellar property is a double garage, sewing/utility room, tiled bathrooms and a spacious office.
