20 year old contemporary style dwelling in private 20 acre bush setting. Site is planted with natural bush and over 120 fruit trees which include apples, grapes, citrus, kiwi fruit and feijoas. A rocky stream winds through the property with clean water and a natural waterfall about 40 feet high. Water supply for the house is gravity fed from the top of the waterfall. Plenty of bird life and a peaceful setting only 200 metres from the main highway north.
We are Rob and Gillian, a married couple with 4 children, Emily, Daniel, Abbie and Matthew, ranging in age from 28 to 12 years. I work as a director of a property valuing company in Northland and Gillian keeps the peace at home! Gillian is from Aberdeen, Scotland and we met about 30 years ago when I was on a working holiday on a North Sea oil rig. Our interests include fishing, walking, reading and relaxing. Our oldest Emily is getting married in Carlingford, County Louth Ireland in October and we are keen to arrange a house exchange within reasonable proximity.
Situated at Hikurangi a former coal mining town which services the farming district, about 15 minutes drive from Whangarei and 2 hours drive from Auckland airport. Also within one hours drive from Bay of Islands where there is great fishing, sightseeing (cradle of the nation), coastal walks and various tourist activities eg swimmming with the dolphins. Car will be available as part of the exchange.
