land with terrace for sale Mangapai, New Zealand

Set amidst 1.32 hectares of beautifully landscaped grounds, this picture-perfect property offers the best of country living just approximately 20km from Whangārei City. With its wrap-around decks, verandahs, and everlasting appeal, this residence invites you to unwind and enjoy the peaceful rural outlook. Built approximately 25 years ago, the home beautifully captures the charm of a Colonial-style homestead, often mistaken for an older home thanks to its classic design features. It offers all the character and appeal of a timeless country residence - without the age - blending enduring style with the comfort and practicality of modern construction. The three-bedroom home (plus study) has been thoughtfully designed to maximise light, space, and connection to the outdoors. High-stud, vaulted ceilings enhance the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, which flows effortlessly to the expansive decking - perfect for entertaining or simply relaxing while overlooking the park-like lawns and native bush backdrop. Two bedrooms open via ranch sliders to the deck, while the master enjoys an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, positioned at the opposite end of the home for added privacy. Comfort is assured year-round with both a wood burner and a heat pump for those cooler evenings. Outdoors, manicured lawns roll down to a serene esplanade reserve with a gentle creek, creating a haven for nature lovers. The property also features a substantial 7.5m x 14m four-bay high-stud shed with three-phase power and a concrete floor—ideal for tradies, storage, or hobby use. Completing the picture are established gardens, flourishing veggie beds, and endless space for family and pets. There’s even potential to reintroduce paddocks for those wanting to keep animals. A truly idyllic lifestyle property, offering privacy, versatility, and timeless charm - just an easy commute from town.
