Botanical escape with vintage character

Pass through the stone walls and gated entrance, framed by a blaze of pink blossom in spring, you’ll instantly recognise this enchanting garden oasis, proudly featured in the Taranaki Garden Festival.

Wander along your own private nature trail, weaving through meandering paths and a lush woodland garden filled with towering ti kouka and majestic king ferns. Continue to the serene wetlands, home to six large turtles, before reaching the edible garden, where a variety of rare and delicious delights await.

At the heart of this sanctuary stands a charming Californian bungalow, seamlessly blending timeless character with modern comforts. Aficionados of the Arts & Crafts movement will appreciate the home's century-old charm, from its coffered ceilings to its rich period details.

Boasting four bedrooms and multiple living spaces, this residence is perfectly complemented by its sprawling 4,098sqm (more or less) section. Exceptional outdoor entertaining areas invite year-round enjoyment, from the refreshing saltwater pool to the generous alfresco living area with its outdoor fire, ideal for cosying up as the evening air cools. Inside, gas-fired radiators ensure warmth and comfort throughout, while a covered walkway to the double garaging adds practicality.

Located in the heart of Lepperton Village, this unique property offers the best of both worlds - tranquil rural charm paired with a welcoming community. The current owners have poured immense love into this haven, which is now ready for its next guardian. There is potential for future subdivision, which adds even more value to this already remarkable property.
