About this property
Te Horo's best-kept secret is for sale for the first time - a sprawling, luxuriously-appointed country estate just a short pony ride from the beach with multiple dwellings, extraordinary amenities and nearly 19ha of pristine, picturesque, pastoral splendour. Highlights include:
• Four-bedroom primary home and swimming pool
• Stand-alone two-bedroom family cottage with farmland views
• Rustic, versatile loft-style retreat and horse stalls
• Back country bar/clubrooms for recreation-plus
• Massive storage/workshop of approximately 480sqm
• Equestrian facilities, including an arena with an all-weather surface
Turns out you can have it all. If you're seeking a luxurious lifestyle sanctuary that straddles rural and coastal, with infrastructure and facilities unrivalled in this location, you've found it at Sandhill Farm.
Originally a bare block of land, Sandhill Farm is now the touchstone for rustic sophistication, combining the freedom of wide-open spaces with premium leisure and practical living.
Everything has been thoughtfully designed with architectural flair, from the stylish country manor that's an indoor-outdoor showcase to three huge sheds fitted out for the ultimate in recreation and phenomenal storage.
These include a loft-style studio, with an adjacent garage and horse stalls, and a clubrooms-like 'man cave' with a bar and space to spare for all the 'boys' toys', from motorbikes to video arcade games to pool tables.
But the biggest structure is an approximately 480sqm shed with an ultra-high stud that engineers, mechanics, boaties, do-it-yourselfers, hobbyists and collectors of classic cars will want to make their passionate pursuits palace.
If you prefer traditional horsepower, there's a range of equestrian solutions, from horse stalls, tack room and feed shed to an arena with an all-weather surface and naturally undulating countryside where you can ride (or graze livestock) with a horse track across the road that leads to the beach.
Of course, who needs the sea when your heated salt-water pool is set amid easy-care grounds with natives, olive trees and a rolling lawn.
Overlooking all of this is the modern, four-bedroom Landmark home, which subtly evokes the landscape with its schist-like feature walls, sand-textured tiles, hay-coloured floorboards, recycled native timber joinery, and living areas that open up to an al fresco patio.
And if you need more space for extended family or guests, the nearby two-bedroom family cottage affords them total independence and privacy.
Add peace-of-mind security with remote-controlled front gates, a small stone fruit orchard, and 16 paddocks to preserve the unspoilt environment, and you have a vast, versatile haven like no other within an easy drive of Wellington City.
Rateable Value: $4,300,000.
Deadline Sale Closing 1pm Tuesday 19 November 2024 (not selling prior).
