228 Happy Valley Road Te Awamutu, Waipa District

You really get the best of both worlds here. Perched right up on an elevated 9054sqm section, the 236sqm home has been designed to make the most of those incredible, uninterrupted views toward Maungatautari. It's the kind of place where you can be cooking dinner or just relaxing on the couch and still feel connected to the landscape outside. With two separate living areas, it actually works for real life-there's space for everyone to do their own thing, whether that's hosting a big group in the main open-plan area or finding a quiet corner to switch off at the end of the day.

The layout just makes sense for modern family living. Four good-sized bedrooms, double internal access garaging, and that easy flow from indoors to outdoors means you'll probably spend as much time outside as in during the warmer months. Being up so high gives you total privacy, but the real showstopper is the view at sunset-watching the light change over the rural landscape from here is something you never really get used to. It feels like a retreat, but without sacrificing any of the quality or functionality you'd want in a family home.

Then there's the bonus for anyone with hobbies, toys, or just a need for serious space. The 90sqm shed is an absolute game-changer-whether you need a workshop, somewhere to store a boat, or room for a car collection, it's already there and ready to go. The land itself is neatly split into five paddocks, so if you've been thinking about having a few animals or just want that extra breathing room that comes with 2.2 acres, this is it. Out at 228 Happy Valley Road, you get the full rural lifestyle package-no compromises, no fuss.
