    This is an exceptionally clean, tasteful, comfortable, well-appointed, spacious, modern 3-bdrm/1 bath home with laundry, on a quiet road in a life-style block in farm country, about 10-15 minutes from downtown KeriKeri. Entrance was easy. Spoke...

Leanne
A Cut Above is a trendy chic, almost that little bit special kinda place. A comfortable three bedroom house with modern furnishings giving you that home away from home. Situated in the country yet only 2 minutes from the Airport and 8 minutes into the township of Kerikeri where the local shopping and ‘must see’ attractions are there for you to enjoy. An ideal location to enjoy peace and quiet for those wishing to rest and relax or a fantastic base for those that want to explore the north.
New Zealand’s oldest building, the Stone Store is a must visit as well as the old kerikeri Mission Station. Don’t forget to visit the famous Packhouse markets where you can meander through the local produce and crafts to pick up that little something special. There are local vineyard less than 5 minutes away that offer fantastic meals and wine tastings. To make it that little bit special, how about taking a tour or get your adrenaline pumping by skydiving. We have also have six golf courses situated within a 30 minute drive including the world famous Kauri Cliffs or if fishing is your thing, then both Whangaroa or the Bay of Islands are there at your doorstep.
