The grounds are designed for ease of care yet provide scope for lifestyle activities, with established tropical gardens, grazing paddocks for horses or livestock, and a pathway that leads to a peaceful hilltop viewing spot with panoramic vistas of the coastline and rolling countryside. Three garages, a workshop, and plentiful parking complete the package, catering to both storage and hobby needs. This is a property that offers scale, flexibility, and an unrivalled setting—a family estate, an income-generating retreat, or simply a private sanctuary in the Bay of Islands.
