43 and 48 Relph Road , Ngongotaha Valley

Ideal for the consummate rural lifestyle, this stunning 27.9ha farm retreat nestles in nature. Tucked quietly away in a private and picturesque Paradise Valley environment, the property is just eight minutes from urban life. Rarely can land of this size and calibre be found on the city fringe. The block is on two titles and features rolling pasture with a good area of mowable land, beautiful stands of native bush and mature specimen trees. Gardens and bush attract diverse bird life that fill the air with song. Approximately half of the farm is deer fenced and heifers, which are well suited to the block, currently graze the land. A tree-lined driveway leads to the fully renovated brick and tile country-style home. Tastefully refreshed in recent years, the four bedroom, single level home comes with a range of appointments that add style and comfort to your day-to-day living. Thoughtfully designed interiors are well suited to large family living, entertaining, overnight guests and private accommodation. The floor plan encompasses two living options, a modern central kitchen with a warm open plan aspect, and an excellent accommodation offering that includes two bedrooms with ensuites, and a third bathroom. Solar heated hot water and a logburner on wetback will significantly offset power bills. A total of two log burners ensure toasty interiors over winter while HRV provides good air quality all year round. Comprehensive infrastructure comprises some rustic buildings, an implement barn with loose boxes for horses, a horse float shed, a three-bay half-round enclosed barn and stock yards with a loading race. Substantial garaging includes double internal access and a separate double-plus garage and workshop combo. Leisure time can be enjoyed fishing in the Ngongotaha Stream bordering the property. The river is famous for its trophy rainbow and brown trout. Paradise Valley Springs Wildlife Park nearby provides further opportunities to get face to face with nature. ...
