Brand New - Eco Pod Sanctuary must be sold!
Due to an unforeseen and unexpected change in circumstances, this six month new Eco Pod Home must be sold urgently!
The home is comprised of 2 x 18m2 Eco Pods placed in a semi rural paradise just 5 mins from Kerikeri Central! Walking distance from the Old Packhouse.
One Pod is a generous bedroom with ensuite, the other is an open plan kitchen, living and breakfast bar. Integrated by a 30m2 Kwila Deck this is a perfect indoor outdoor living situation with expansive rural views and spectacular sunsets! Selling at a huge discount! Requesting offers over $580 000.00
Both PODS have CCC. The next project was going to add a roof over the deck and a third POD for second bedroom with ensuite. This large property is 3567m2 and has already prepared another platform for a further POD for extended family or Airbnb business opportunities. It would be easily possible to put a further third POD on the property down below with a western view. For further information and viewing please call 021 225 6446.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
