Once in a While
Once in a while a home comes along with the organic warmth and unique character of straw bale construction, this home offers an immediate sense of sanctuary, it feels like a welcoming hug the moment you step inside.
Built with sustainability in mind, it naturally remains cool in the summer and holds its warmth in the winter. For cooler months, a cozy fire and underfloor heating on both levels provide complete comfort. Inside, the home's eco conscious design is beautifully complemented by recycled beams and character timber features that add depth and history throughout.
Perched at the top of a quiet street, the property is perfectly positioned to capture all day sun while framing magnificent views that draw you in from every angle.
The setting is as enchanting as the home itself, generous, beautifully established, and steeped in natural beauty. For the astute buyer, the property's practical features are just as impressive as its aesthetic. The extensive parking and exceptional garaging space are highly sought after assets, offering the perfect setup for those with a passion for hobbies, workshops, or storing all the 'toys'.
Homes of this caliber are rare finds. This is a residence with a timeless, distinct personality that is simply not often seen in the modern market. It's more than just a home, it is a sustainable lifestyle opportunity for those who value privacy, warmth, and architecture with heart.

Building consents
We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.
If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.
Zoning and hazards
What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.
Reading the council's maps…
What could you build here?
See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
