As you enter the gates to Acton Estate, you are transported back to a time of elegance and majesty. Everything was well thought through and designed just to be relished and enjoyed. Acton is a registered building of the NZ Historic Places Trust, and has not only been kept to an extremely high standard but also strengthened to have higher structural integrity than at its original conception, preserving it for years to come.
A beautiful property like this, completely tucked away and private, yet easily accessible and close to town doesn't come around often. The grand gardens with specimen trees, heirloom orchard plantings and flower beds with beautiful walkways could have you lost in time for hours on end. Once you approach the house, the sheer magnitude of its size and beauty will have you transfixed.
The majesty of the property is manifested throughout the 740sqm ornately designed home. With 10 bedrooms, a large dining hall, billiards room, formal lounge, service lounge / dining, extensive entry, office, commercial standard kitchen, cottage, tennis court, golf course, large barn / stables on 8.52 hectares of beautifully planned out and maintained land, calling Acton Estate a rare opportunity is an understatement.
Acton was originally created as a private residence but over its 117 years of life has also been run as a hotel, bed and breakfast, company guest house, wedding and event venue, and opened its gardens up to the public for viewing numerous times. Whatever thought Acton Estate stirs within you, make a time for a private viewing or simply get in touch for further information to make the most of this golden opportunity.
