Description
Our warm modern house is situated on 18 acres of beautiful rolling green hills with its own small area of native bush. We (my husband Bruce and myself) have 2 Labrador dogs 3 chickens and one Kitten who has just been added to the family. We run a bnb and both work. (I work part time at the local hospital and Bruce works at the Auckland airport. We have a large garden with many fruit trees, vege and flower gardens. We run 20 head of cattle on our lifestyle block. We have lived overseas with our family when our kids were young and have travelled internationally. We have often had international travellers to stay on a casual basis .
Pukekohe is a thriving small town with all services, cafes and supermarkets. the town is only a 7 minute drive from our place or a short walk then bus ride. We are close to the Hunua ranges with its many walking tracks . We are only a half hour drive to the nearest beaches both west coast and east coast 40 mins from Auckland city and 1.5 hrs from Hobbiton. The beautiful Coromandel peninsula is only a 2 hr drive away. The climate is pleasant and it is comfortable to be outside most of the year.
