'Windrush'
On the market for the first time, Windrush has been in the care of its present owners for 51 years. They commissioned the architect Colin Pilbrow to design the home in 1957 and established the lovely grounds. In later years an orchard was planted and it now provides a secure income under a long term lease with organic status. The property extends to 6.07 hectares in total.
The property is totally private, with the home surrounded by sweeping lawns that merge seamlessly into the surrounding paddock via a ha-ha. The orchard does not intrude at all. Many mature fruit and specimen trees feature as well as a grass tennis court, walled pool area and a soothing water feature.
The home was built in an era when wood was the natural choice and features Australian hardwood floors, French doors, sash windows and an abundance of built-in furniture. There are four bedrooms plus a study and a generous living/ dining area that look out over the grounds. The north facing verandah is an absolute suntrap for entertaining. A small workshop and designated wine cellar complete the picture.
For your convenience this property is located only 2.3 kilometers from the centre of the Havelock village allowing easy access to schools, shops and amenities.
This rare opportunity is now yours to secure this enchanting property.
