1100 Nikau Road, SH67 Mokihinui, Buller District

Embrace country living the old-fashioned way, surrounded by gently swaying paddocks and breathtaking views of the Glasgow Range. If you're seeking a quieter, more grounded lifestyle, it's hard to imagine anything better.

Set on just under 2 hectares, this charming homestead dates back to the late 1800s, when timber milling and coal mining were thriving in the Mokihinui district. Today, it's enjoyed as a much-loved family bach - a place for weekends filled with fishing, kayaking, and exploring the area's many remarkable walking tracks.

The home itself is impressively spacious, offering ample room for large family gatherings. The generous living area enjoys a lovely outlook over the surrounding paddocks, is warmed by a large wood burner for cosy winter nights, and flows seamlessly to a west-facing conservatory - the perfect spot to curl up with a book and a fine glass of red as the sun sets.

The country kitchen is made for delicious home cooking, especially when paired with produce from your own garden. There are three double bedrooms, plus a bonus loft that could serve as extra sleeping quarters, a kids' hangout, or a light-filled painting studio.

Outside, the double garage provides excellent storage and includes an adjoining woodshed. There's also plenty of space to add further outbuildings if desired.

This truly special property is ready for its next chapter and your personal touch. After a day spent hiking, biking, fishing, or exploring nearby historic sites, return home to relaxed evenings around the brazier beneath star-filled West Coast skies.
