From the listing agent
In the words of Graeme McLeod, Harcourts - Helensville
Not often these days is the option available to relocate a home on to a lifestyle block particularly one within walking distance to the village centre and schools. The generous house site is of an easy contour with ample space for ancillary sheds, vege gardens, orchard and outdoor living. Perhaps consider an available totally off the grid option and grow your own food. This is becoming a more sought after and acceptable lifestyle choice. The privacy here is a definite positive factor. The existing track leading to the lower level and the pond could be the beginning of your kids dirt track circuit. Do your kids a favour and let them enjoy growing up in a rural environment where hunting and fishing is at the "back door".
The Vendor is looking for some immediate action here hence a new asking price of $730,000. Call me now.
