Self-Sufficient Retreat
Are you trying to find a true escape from the rest of the world, while keeping the convenience of being close to central Wellington? 759 Takarau Gorge Road offers self sufficient family living with your own bush tracks right on your doorstep as well as expansive views over the rolling hills to the ocean on the Makara coast.
* Four double bedrooms
* Two bathrooms
* Double internal access garage
* Low maintenance & single level
Inside you have a well thought out 190m2 single level family home that was built in 2013. There is an open plan living/kitchen/dining area, that is the heart of the home. The large wood burner keeps the entire home warm and dry with help from the heat transfer system. The kitchen is modern with gas cooking and every way you look you take in stunning views and perfect privacy. Down the hall you have the master bedroom with walk in wardrobe and ensuite. There are also three more double bedrooms and a generous family bathroom. The double garage houses your full solar setup with enough power generation and battery storage to take you through the entire year off grid. On the odd occasion in the middle of winter that the system needs to be topped up there is a petrol generator on site.
Outside is an outdoor enthusiasts paradise with more than 5.4 hectares of stunning land and native bush. There are several out buildings perfect for storage, firewood or even chickens. You also have additional parking for extra vehicles right next to your garage. The property itself has so much to offer. Trek down your own walking tracks into native bush that has never been cleared and meet a treasure trove of bird life. There are even kiwi walking your tracks at night with the new release into this area. The kids will spend hours outside having adventures just metres from your front door. Set down the driveway from the main house are two flat areas suitable as building platforms that would be perfect for a tiny home or air bnb, if further development is something that you would like to realise.
Makara itself has a wonderful school and regular community events as well as a great cafe, beach, walking tracks, diving, and fishing. The best thing is that all of this is at your fingertips and you are only 15 minutes from Karori or 19 minutes from Johnsonville.
