Esmae Farrington Harcourts Kerikeri
Hidden behind the hedgerows of Waimate North sits an architectural treasure with connections to two of Auckland's most enduring landmarks. Originally, from Remuera, where it was known as Alban House, the architect was renowned Richard Atkinson Abbott.
Built using kauri weatherboards, it has a majestic feel with large bay windows allowing light to flood the front rooms with warmth and light. The interior has a relaxed, chic and ambient feel with polished timber floors. It is generous in size with a separate living room, adjoining library, five bedrooms, two bathrooms, study, upstairs balcony and a sheltered veranda.
The open plan kitchen has a centre island for cooking on gas hotplates and under-bench electric oven, pantry and an area for casual dining in the bay window eastside. The kitchen fit-out has totara cabinetry and a marble countertop.
The property also includes a large character garage and fully self-contained one-bedroom cottage. The owners have modernised this country haven throughout and nurtured an extensive income producing orchard. Set amidst landscape trees and manicured hedges, the fenced two acres is suitable for horses or a future project; the options are unlimited. Your own vineyard or olive grove or install a swimming pool and tennis court. It is a blank canvas. There is also the potential to subdivide or build another house (subject to appropriate resource consents).
Just 18 kms from Kerikeri in a quiet country setting, all the hard work has been done. It now offers new owners the opportunity to personalise the property to their needs.
Properties of this calibre are a rare find in Waimate North. Come and enjoy a new lifestyle in this gracious old villa steeped in history.
