91 Lane Road 哈夫洛克, 霍克湾 新西兰

Head down a private tree-lined driveway to a secluded haven of wondrous surprises, a property for those seeking the very best in Havelock North lifestyle.

Here is a house for generous, relaxed living, a sparkling pool in a tranquil garden and stunning views out to Te Mata Peak over grounds boasting a picturesque stream and paddocks for your pony.

With hardly a neighbour in sight, the glorious birdsong and the privacy of graceful boundary trees, there is a real country feel. And yet the cafes and shops of Havelock North and your choice of schools are within walking or cycling distance and only minutes by car.

Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, formal lounge, and a large, light-filled family/dining room and excellent kitchen are designed to give room to move. A separate laundry, an office, generous shed, carport and utility area add to the plentiful space.

L-shaped, with a large, private master suite at one end, the house opens to a wisteria-clad patio overlooking lovingly cared gardens with lavish seasonal colour. This is truly a gardener's treasure trove. Thoughtful design provides sun and light as well as welcome shade on sweltering summer days.

Two large, flat grassy areas are a child's delight with the eight-metre pool beckoning for watery games. Extensive vegetable gardens and fruit trees provide bounty for the table, and beyond are storage sheds and fenced, grassy paddocks leading down to the stream.

This is an easy home to entertain in fine style with its excellent indoor-outdoor connections and the superb, elevated position offering views far and wide.

The home's hub is the large family room and appealing kitchen, with space for dining, looking out to Te Mata Peak in the distance. Enjoy the garden view from bay window seats.

For 20 years, a family has cherished this wonderful retreat. Now it's time for new owners to grow their wonderful memories here.

Properties like this are incredibly rare.
