AI summary

Discover a unique Spanish-style hacienda at 46 Carlton Road, Pukekohe, privately situated down a long drive and backing onto the native forest of Roosville Park.

Inspired by Mediterranean travels, this three-bedroom plaster home was a passion project for its owners. It features rustic macrocarpa doors and a sunny deck with a vine-covered pergola, offering tranquil, uninterrupted views.

Ideal for retiring couples or families, this comfortable home provides a country-like feel while being close to town amenities.

The plastering was all done by the owner's late husband, Mike Moloney.

The interior is open plan, easy-care and modern.

Connection to the outdoors is important here. The home backs onto a reserve, with native bush.

The deck is the owner’s favourite place in the home.

The owner's grandkids "disappear" into the bush when they visit. There are rope swings and tracks to play on.

Inside, the home has three double bedrooms, including this master suite.

The home also has two bathrooms.

Two reception rooms means there's plenty of space for everyone.
