AS IS WHERE IS
Enter through the tree lined driveway and prepare to be charmed by a graceful homestead steeped in history. Described as "late Victorian neo-gothic" in style, Woodlands homestead was built in the 1900s with native kauri used extensively in the interior. Nestled into a beautiful garden setting on 2.9694 hectares of land, here is your chance to create an idyllic lifestyle for your family in the clean, fresh country air!!
The stately residence exudes a timeless elegance with large sash windows and an ornate front verandah welcoming you inside. Kauri timber throughout, high ceilings, elegant chandeliers and vintage curtains deliver all the charm of yesteryear. Huge scope to renovate and restore this beauty back to its former glory - although perfectly livable just as it is. Sprawled over two levels comprising a multitude of rooms including a kitchen, dining room, drawing room, sitting room and sunroom. The formal dining room has an 11-foot stud and the drawing room is blessed with a kauri faced fireplace. On the lower level is the main bathroom, separate toilet and laundry. Upstairs are five bedrooms and a family bathroom along with a separate toilet.
The home overlooks an expansive lawn area, a lovely garden setting with old fashioned roses surrounded by a backdrop of trees. There is a separate two roomed studio just perfect for a hobby room or play space for the kids. Wide open spaces for the little ones to explore or climb the trees. Located away from the hustle and bustle yet Leeston, Springfield and Lincoln are all close by. Zoned for Leeston school and Ellesmere College.
