Matata
Whakatane & District
Bolthole in the Making
Located at the base of the Manawahe Hills is this a magical property in a spectacular setting.
This 19.04 Ha (more or less) property is largely covered in native bush and forms the majestic backdrop to this unique location. This is indeed a rare opportunity to own a significant land holding of this type and still have the convenience of amenities close at hand. Matata (3.5 kilometres) and Edgecumbe (10.5 kilometres). Whakatane is an easy 26-kilometre drive away.
Upon entering the sweeping bush clad driveway, you quickly become surrounded with a chorus of Cicada during the summer months and birdsong from the various array of native and exotic birds during the remainder of the year. A lot of effort has gone into ensuring this habitat has been maintained for the ongoing enjoyment of future generations.
The "off the grid" barn style home is located at the end of the driveway. Set on an elevated site with simply stunning views of the Rangitaiki Plains and out across the emerald blue Pacific Ocean. On a clear day you can see all the way to East Cape. Sure, this home is a project that needs to be completed but the core is all here and just crying out for a visionary to stamp their mark on this structure and to create a residence of substance to be proud of.
The last few weeks have created an even greater desire in many to become more self-reliant and to live a life away from the hustle and bustle and associated problems that have become synonymous with modern day living. This is exactly the type of property that allows those dreams to be fulfilled and offers the scale that is not often available in such a convenient location.
