The upper level features the dining room, lounge and second bedroom. A contemporary wood fire oven in the centre warms the house through winter and neutralizes the humidity through summer.

With already approximately 10 acres of cleared land for orchards and a paddock, 20 more acres can be cleared should you so desire. Spotted amongst the forest exists Plantation timber for future builds.
The main shed is a short walk down from the house, a great space that keeps Hekarwe surrounds healthy. 400 metres from the main house and shed nestled in a rainforest pocket beneath the hill with two springs is the Caretaker Shed. The building was originally built for the previous owners son, a comfortable 190 m2 dwelling with septic toilet and outdoor shower/bath. Mains power and solar now run lights, fans and fridges.
