Overview
This charming farmhouse, built in 1957 by the family who have lovingly called it home ever since, offers a unique opportunity to own a property rich in history and character. More than just a house, it is a place where generations have lived and created lasting memories, with children raised, grandchildren visiting, and great-grandchildren running across the same floors. The home reflects true pride and care, evident in its enduring quality and warmth.
Situated on approximately one acre in the heart of the fertile and tightly held Pyengana Valley, the property is surrounded by rolling dairy country and rich soil, offering a peaceful rural lifestyle that remains untouched by the rush of modern life. The wide verandah at the front of the home is perfectly positioned for relaxation, ideal for enjoying a quiet moment with a cup of tea while watching tractors pass by instead of traffic, emphasizing the tranquility of the location.
Inside, the home is spacious and generous, featuring four bedrooms of traditional, comfortable sizes. Two separate living areas provide ample space for family and guests to spread out and enjoy. The kitchen is a standout feature, a large country-style space full of character, ready to be the heart of family gatherings and culinary creations.
Comfort is assured year-round with a wood heater for the crisp winters typical of Pyengana, complemented by two reverse cycle air conditioners. The home has been reclad in recent years, ensuring it remains solid and well-maintained while preserving its original charm and character.
Outside, the property continues to impress with established fruit trees, mature plantings, and a variety of outbuildings that have evolved alongside the home over decades. These features are typical of a working country home that has been genuinely lived in and cared for.
A particularly notable feature is the large shed on the property, originally constructed as the local badminton hall. The full court remains inside, a testament to the community spirit that once thrived here. Today, the shed serves as a versatile farm shed, offering exceptional scale and height rarely found on residential properties. It presents numerous possibilities for storage, workspace, hobbies, events, or even reviving the local badminton competition.
The location is ideal for those seeking a rural lifestyle with convenience. The property is minutes from local attractions such as the St Columba Falls and the Pub in the Paddock, and offers an easy drive through scenic countryside to St Helens for everyday needs.
This home is not a modern showpiece but rather a warm, authentic residence that would be instantly recognized and appreciated by previous generations. It offers a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a property with soul, history, and ample space to create their own family memories.
