Escape the Rat-Race, Live the Dream...

In a quiet little valley less than two kilometres from the bustling Taipa village and the shores of Doubtless Bay you will find just over two acres (9,115 sqm) of beautiful north-facing, partly native bush covered, lifestyle property.

This property offers a sense of peace, pleasant birdsong and isolation... yet is a short drive to the convenience of urban amenities and the splendours of Doubtless Bay.

There is a creek running through the property for most of the year, that flows through a small dammed up pond serving as a valuable source of water for the nearby small (20m x 10m) orchard. The orchard contains about 20 fruit trees of different varieties (Eg. olives, citrus, plums, macadamias and bananas). There are also approximately 30 native/other trees (including two Kauris) that have been planted by my owners over the years.

The property is fully fenced five wire with no battens and a lockable gate at the driveway entrance. It slopes gently from the driveway entrance down towards the creek which is about two thirds of the way into the property. Over the creek it slopes gently upwards towards the northern boundary.

While there is no habitable dwelling currently on the property, it does boast a lockable 40' container and a secure 8m x 4m shed which my vendors have used for storage over the years. Their dreams of converting the shed and container into a dwelling can now be realised by the new owners. Rainwater is collected off the shed roof and stored in a 8,000L (approx) tank which serves as a source of drinking water.

There is also potential for Doubtless Bay views if a double storey dwelling were to be built at the relatively flat building site near the driveway entrance with power to the gate.

The owners, who have lovingly owned and tended this property for nearly 16 years wish to retire to Switzerland and are looking for the next guardian of their haven. Property ID: #HDB3733
