Perched on a hillside overlooking the pristine Pakihi stream, this 22.1 hectare property offers you the chance to make the great escape to the good life. Leave the hustle and bustle behind, say goodbye to the neighbours and live the dream surrounded by native bush and bird life in Pakihi Road, just a 15 minute drive from central Opotiki.
The house is in a unique arched style with fantastically high ceilings for a really light and airy mountain lodge-like feel that provides plenty of space for all the family and friends that arrive for the summer holidays. An upstairs mezzanine provides a spacious open plan sleeping area, and there is a large extra bedroom - with its own access - situated off the main living area.
The good-sized kitchen opens on to the main room and has a great view looking out down the valley, as does the front deck space, complete with a covered area. There is a wood burner fitted in the main living area to keep you toasty warm in winter.
The Pakihi stream runs parallel to the road that passes the property and in addition to making for some fantastic hiking trails there is an excellent swimming hole just a stone's throw from the house and some great back country trout fishing to be had.
The Urutawa Forest is a Department of Conservation Reserve situated just behind the property so you can literally set off tramping from your own backdoor.
Below the house is a sizable shed to store firewood or horse tackle, or with some Kiwi ingenuity and elbow grease this could be turned into a potter's workshop or artist's studio.
This property has family space, wilderness fun on the doorstep, and is in easy distance from Opotiki. If your looking for a great escape, call Phil today.
