About our Farm House: Recently renovated 100 year old farm house on hill top with 270 degree sweeping valley views including beautiful Wanganui Gorge to the north. A new addition to the large old house includes kitchen/living/dining with large undercover deck and new modern bathrooms. Open and/or enclosed verandahs on all sides. A slow combustion fireplace keeps the house cozy in winter while extensive louvre windows throughout allow summer breezes in.
We have 100 acres of grazed and wooded hillsides, including bush regeneration zones and nearly one kilometer of river frontage with swimming holes to explore. Olympic size trampoline and great trees, cubby and sandpit for the kids. National park five minutes away.
