Ignite Your Imagination, Indulge Your Dreams
3 Hillwood Drive presents opportunities for buyers who are looking for the ability to generate income as well as indulge their passion for character, history and lifestyle. This is an ideal location for a home based business. Bordering the state highway, you have the benefit of high visibility for signage and yet easy access off a side road. Approximately 160sqm of lock-up sheds and outbuildings, plus another 100 (+/-) undercover, offers plenty of scope for many types of business or additional storage for cars, caravan and the boat. Alternatively, rent them out to top up your income.
Concrete slab floors, water and 3 phase power to the large sheds mean that your options are limited only by your imagination. All set on just over an acre of land, Thackwood Homestead is little more than 10 minutes to the CDB, with good schools nearby and a school bus that goes right past the gate.
Withstanding the test of time, historic Thackwood has been loved by families for generations and previously operating as an artist’s workshop and gallery. Up for sale after 38 years, this magnificent example of early New Zealand architecture is now ready for the sounds of new family love. With 6 bedrooms and generous living spaces, this home is meant to be filled with the excitement of young people growing up in the country. Private and protected, the homestead is set comfortably on established grounds surrounded by a variety of trees, including fruits, Redwoods and natives, while multiple vegetable patches provide for the kitchen table.
A fine example of its era, Thackwood homestead has been extensively remodelled over the past 25 years with all the major works completed. Covered verandas, ornate fireplace, sash windows and beautiful Rimu period features keep the charm and character alive. Well-proportioned living rooms and a generous open plan kitchen provide easy relaxed family living; with french doors inviting a casual indoor / outdoor flow.
Anyone looking for that something a wee bit unique, whether it be home or business or both, simply must view.
