Built in 1912 by the Government the homestead still has the it's original Kauri (native NZ wood) floors, window surrounds and the doors. The house was built to accommodate the workers who worked at the ship to shore wireless station which was located on the farm next door. Then the NZ Army took the house over in World War 1 and it was used the accommodate officers. When the war was over the army sold it to a local school teacher who in turn sold it to another local family and then my husband and I purchased it in 1997. |

The homestead was very run down and we had the fun in restoring it. It took us 2 years to fully restore the house which we both worked on full time 5 days a week. |

About Us - Cherie & Clive
|
|
My husband Clive and I moved to the Far North from Auckland with our 2 children, Elaine and Leigh, for a better life style. We had seen the house several years before but it was not for sale at that time. Clive is fantastic at anything he puts his hands to, that is why the house is in the beautiful condition it is today. |
We were both born in Auckland, grew up together. We both like the outdoors, travelling in our bus, and motor bike rides on the weekends when we can. We enjoy meeting new people and sharing experiences.
Clive works for Stonecraft Construction building swimming pools around the Far North.
We also
have two friendly dogs.
