The north easterly aspect and the large windows capture the light filled morning sky as soon as the sun is awake.

The established vineyard with both Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir vines will be of interest for those who simply love a glass or three and wish to have their grapes made into wine by a local winemaker or for those who would like to make their own. Both are options here. The agent representing this property can attest to the wine being very good. The vineyard during the 2017 harvest produced 800 kilos resulting in 50 dozen bottles of Pinot Noir and 15 dozen bottles of Sauvignon Blanc. Some of the vines are approximately twenty years old and the most recent were planted 3 years ago. The vines are serviced by an in ground sprinkler system and a state of the art frost mitigation system.
