39 Ridge Park Drive
This sun-drenched 445 sqm lifestyle homestead is on a 2525 sqm site. It ticks a lot of boxes. Ideal as a large family home with multi-vehicle internal garaging for all the toys but also suitable for extended family's looking for the potential to create a second dwelling within, or someone wanting a work from home set up. (obviously subject to due diligence & appropriate approvals from council).
Just 7 minutes drive to the base, easy access to Hamilton and commuting to Auckland. North facing and overlooking a Farm Park, guarantees privacy, sun and views. Downstairs you'll find 4 bedrooms, master with ensuite, a formal lounge, an open plan kitchen/dining room, all leading out through large bi-folding doors to the patio and outdoor entertaining areas. There's also a huge home theatre room set up with speakers and a large screen, plus there's another zoned speaker system downstairs with outdoor speakers as well. Upstairs you'll find 115 sqm of floor space partitioned into an open plan 2nd lounge/rumpus room, a huge office and a fully equipped commercial type kitchen plus a 3rd toilet and hand washing facilities. Subject to the right approvals, this area would make an excellent self contained flat or perhaps a huge home based office or catering business.
Until recently, the current owners used part of the garaging and the upstairs for their licensed "craft beer" warehouse/depot and have also used the upstairs facility to manufacture and prepare food for out-catering. This home is in a great location, is very versatile and very handy to town. If you want a modern, spacious home with options, then make sure this is on your viewing list.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Wild weather in the Waikato
The Waikato really copped it over the weekend, with wild weather leaving a hefty clean-up bill that may run into the millions.
While things are looking calmer in the days ahead, there are still plenty of slips and flooded roads across the district — so if you’re heading out, take it easy and stay alert.
We want to know: How did you and your whānau get on over the weekend?
