Modernized character home with endless charm

1279 Kereru Road is a perfect example of a great little lifestyle property. There has been a huge amount of time, effort and work put into this 9285 m/2.3 acre property and it is evident when you visit. The vendors are reluctantly moving on and the lucky new owners will reap the benefits of all the improvements.
A well-presented, beautiful home is the centrepiece of this lifestyle property. Originally built in the 1930s, this home has been cleverly renovated throughout, providing all of the modern comforts of a brand new house but holding the feel of a character home. There is a huge deck off the kitchen/dining area, which is great for entertaining or taking in the rural vista this property offers.
The very efficient new Firenzo fireplace, along with a heat pump in the lounge and main and second bedrooms and an HRV system, makes this home comfortable all year round. The home also boasts retro-fitted double glazing throughout, fully re-gibbed with insulated ceiling, walls and floors, in-built smoke alarms and a security system.
The outside room, or fourth bedroom, has a separate bathroom with shower, vanity and toilet. The room has been insulted (walls and ceiling), walls re-gibbed, has been repiled (concrete pad under bathroom, wooden piles under room), new wool carpet and has been re-wired. All done professionally. This space could be great as an office, extra bedroom or guest accommodation.
The three-bay roller door garage has plenty of space for cars, toys or machinery, with a decent gravel turning bay at the front. Other benefits of the property include a great chicken coop and run, very good water supply with an excellent filtration system and the impressive veggie garden.
Maraekakaho is a great, desirable location with a strong community and surrounded by beautiful countryside of rolling hills and vineyards. World renowned wineries are less than a 10 minute drive away, and the well-regarded Maraekakaho School (full primary, years 1-8) is just down the road.
This is a very impressive property that needs to be seen to be appreciated. The beautiful character home has so much charm, and with the property being fully modernised, it really is special. Below is a list of what has been done to the property since the vendors have owned the property.
