Privately positioned within a unique natural setting and offered to the market for the very first time, 2/398 Luck at Last Road is a much-loved family home where privacy, birdsong, and breathtaking rural outlooks define everyday living. Built in 2008 by Villa Homes, this double glazed residence has been thoughtfully designed to embrace its unique landscape, set within a long, gently sloping parcel that begins at the ridgeline and descends through protected New Zealand native bush.

As the new owner of this stunning property, you become the kaitiaki (trusted guardian) of the most amazing piece of ancient NZ forest.
Positioned halfway down the hillside, the home enjoys both elevation and shelter, surrounded by established, beautiful bush alive with birdlife and interwoven with private walking and mountain biking tracks. This carefully chosen setting creates a sense of complete seclusion while still capturing stunning views across the Waikato countryside and out to Maungatautari mountain, renowned as a world class ecological bird sanctuary.

Designed with family living in mind, the home offers generous proportions and a highly functional layout. Four double bedrooms are complemented by two well-appointed bathrooms, including a master suite with an en-suite, French doors opening to the verandah, and picturesque views that provide a serene start to each day. Two separate living areas, formal and casual, allow for both relaxed family living and more refined entertaining, while the open plan kitchen and dining space forms the central hub of the home.

The connection to the outdoors is seamless. The verandah and deck offer a front-row seat to the landscape, a place to enjoy morning coffee in the sun, often above the lingering Waikato mist, while taking in exceptional rural vistas. Here, peace, serenity, and expansive outlooks become part of your daily rhythm, with the sound of native birds visiting and nesting from the nearby sanctuary. With ample space to add value to this already stunning property, there is room for a pool and a double garage off the residence if desired.

For those looking to develop a self reliant way of life, there are extensive raised veggie beds, a herb garden, a well established orchard, a large chicken run, a composting system, and a grazing paddock to raise calves or sheep, where a large agricultural shed with a separate power and water supply offers multiple options.

Families will appreciate the proximity to top schooling options, including Leamington, Hora Hora Primary Schools, Cambridge Middle School, and Cambridge High School. For those seeking a private education, renowned St. Peter's School offers exceptional extracurricular and academic opportunities, with the convenience of nearby school buses.

This property also benefits from an approved Environmental Benefit Lot (EBL) entitlement, allowing buyers to explore future possibilities to create an additional title/subdivision (subject to the completion of the remaining consent steps and Council requirements).

Approximately 11km to Cambridge, 29 km to Te Awamutu, and 32km to Hamilton, this property offers a rare balance of rural serenity and urban convenience, making it an ideal base for those who want a retreat without isolation.

For lovers of outdoor pursuits, Lake Karapiro is just a short drive away. World famous for its rowing events, the lake also boasts beautiful river walks, tranquil picnic spots, and an ever present connection to the outdoors. Whether you’re drawn to the serenity of lakeside living, the proximity to thriving towns, or the daily wonder of native bush, 2/398 Luck at Last Road offers a lifestyle like no other, a rare harmony of nature, space, and connection.
