Defining quality, this property offers a lifestyle of elegance and refinement set on 11.6 acres of lovingly tended show gardens, forest and orchard. Flanked by symmetrical hedgerows the driveway takes you to a property that celebrates beauty.
Filled with light the open living appreciates an ever changing spectrum where the seasons are marked by the outdoor canopy. The house features a state of the art kitchen, with an open living space - a place of congenial gatherings, surrounded by literary collections on the dividing library wall.
A place of respite the master suite opens to wisteria laden verandah where a sheltered garden amplifies the song of native birdlife. Three additional bedrooms offer spacious and serene places for rest including the garden facing self-contained guest suite.
An original part of Leybourne - the barn - crafted in rimu and matai creating a gentleman's space for snooker, a workshop for tinkering, the begonia houses and orchard display the fruits of dedicated hours. Allow your imagination to wander as you stroll amidst the native forest to the banks of the Waikanae River, or around flourishing gardens resting by the pool and tennis court. Multiple outbuildings including separate gardener's cottage support this gracious property and lifestyle.
First time on the market in over 30 years.
A home of which to be proud, so close to Waikanae facilities yet capturing the peace of rural tranquillity.
