30 Tara Hills Drive, North Taieri, Dunedin City

Sitting at the head of the Taieri Plain on the foothills of Three Mile Hill, this 17.1 Hectare farmlet (42 acres approx.) is close to town and provides a supersized lifestyle you have been waiting for. The beautifully appointed home of around 276 sqm consists of five bedrooms in total, one of these being the extremely appealing, self-contained annex, ideal for a parent or home stay. The master has an ensuite and walk-in robe and all bedrooms are doubles, plus there is an office nook. The modern kitchen with island bench is open planned to the living room. Lying perfectly to face the northern sun and with the majority of windows double glazed, a simple yet effective ducted heat pump heats and cools the entire house, with a wood burner in the living room and underfloor heating in main bathroom and the separate toilet. The indoor - outdoor living and privacy afforded by established specimen trees are notably alluring facets of this elevated, fully renovated home. Outbuildings include an office complex with attached double garage and double carport plus lean-to sheds for the tractor, implements and perhaps your boat? Fully electrified fenced into five main paddocks with troughs to all paddocks supplied from the county scheme, this easy contoured and productive land can be farmed by the new owner or leased out so you can simply enjoy the lifestyle and the income. This exciting and enticing property has many features and remaining chattels as my vendors are off to the UK to live. Two features to close with are the close proximity to Dunedin and Mosgiel, and also the added bonus is the 5 Ha (approx.) tree lot of approaching 25-year old Pinus Radiata.
