Welcome to this four bedroom character bungalow within a stunning country lifestyle with views of Mount Pirongia and only minutes to town. Enjoy the beautifully kept, private and landscaped gardens.

The house has four bedrooms with the fourth room currently being used as a media room. In addition, there is also a sunroom/office, a bathroom with a shower and bath, and two separate toilets, along with a separate laundry.

There is a separate formal lounge and spacious kitchen/dining area opening onto a large, newly oiled deck, facing Mount Pirongia.

This has been a smoke-free home and is heated by two heatpumps and is fully insulated with smoke alarms.

The house has just been commercially cleaned outside along with a hard surface treatment, so you are good to go.

Potential to add a second dwelling.

Awesome neighbours, relaxing country lifestyle with mountain views, birdsong, privacy, yet still close to town.

Hamilton East MP Ryan Hamilton was among Hamilton leaders the Waikato Times spoke to in the aftermath of revelations of increasing feral behaviour in the city’s CBD, and he said with lower inflation and economic indicators starting to turn the corner, businesses would need staff.

Love Art? EarthDiverse is pleased to announce its first ever Art Appreciation Café on Thursday evenings in November.

Everyone is a potential artist, and everyone can appreciate and interpret art. At our Art Appreciation Café we meet for informal discussion about works of art, artists and artistic developments. Join us over a cuppa to view and talk about exemplary pieces of world art. During each of our 4 sessions we will discuss 4 very different works of art from diverse eras and geographical places of origin.

After a brief introduction by an expert, we invite everyone to share their personal observations and insights.

At our first session we discuss cave art from Lascaux, a painting from the Italian Renaissance, German Romanticism and a contemporary New Zealand sculpture.

The workshop's conveners Peter Dornauf and Norman Franke look forward to seeing you for four evenings of spirited discussion about the arts in November.

Coffee, tea & biscuits will be available during each weekly session.

Thursdays beginning 7 November, 7:00-8:30pm, in Hamilton, New Zealand.

For more info on this and all of our other courses on offer this Term (beginning the week starting Sunday 20 October 2024, visit our website by clicking on the Read More button below.
