200 Hooker Road, Tamahere

Location is key to valuable real estate, and this prized address is one of the most sought-after lifestyle pockets between Hamilton and Cambridge.
Reclining on the landscape is a character home built circa 1930s. Ensconced in a private and mature garden setting of 8420 sq m (more or less).
Straddling two eras with an extension and makeover, the partially double-glazed home blends traditional detailing with contemporary features and comforts. A beautiful illustration of old-meets-new is in the kitchen where a vintage fire surround has created the perfect slot for the modern cooker. A pantry, a central island, and modern appliances enhance functionality and make entertaining a breeze.
A log burner is the focal point of the open living space where the kitchen, dining, and lounge areas mingle harmoniously. The sunroom is a warm, enticing spot to relax and unwind, and the deck and alfresco niches beckon for outdoor living and family barbecues.
Three well-appointed bedrooms, including a master with an en-suite and dressing room, are restful sanctuaries. The family bathroom seamlessly incorporates laundry appliances.
Native timber flooring throughout adds a rich, warm glow to the light-filled interior.
There is plenty going on outdoors. Subject to consent, the fully lined and powered 60 sq m shed could be used as an ancillary dwelling. As it is, this substantial outbuilding is the perfect place for hobbies. Then there's the 20 sq m or so sleep-out or office suited to those who work from home.
A good-sized implement/hay shed with a stable caters to a pony, sheep, or a few beefies. If a few paddocks are needed, some post and rail fencing could easily be added, or owners can simply enjoy the park-like grounds and their eclectic array of trees, shrubs, and flowers.
This very appealing home is close to arterial networks and Hamilton Airport, as well as the Te Awa River Ride. It is zoned for coveted schools, serviced by school buses, and has Cambridge and Hamilton both within easy commuting distance.
