Five bedrooms, five hectares, prime location

A property with this much to offer, within just 10 minutes from town, is rare and highly sought after. This substantial five-bedroom family home with a pool, covered horse yards, extensive shedding, and multiple income options is a must-see.

As you pass through the electric gates and meander down the tree-lined driveway, you'll arrive at the original stucco house, built in the 1960s. This sunny, welcoming home features a spacious lounge and dining area, along with a modern kitchen equipped with a ceramic stove, rangehood, dishwasher, waste disposal, and water filter. For those cooler months, the home is insulated and kept cosy with a new wood burner, two heat pumps, and an HRV system to ensure year-round comfort.

At 257sqm, there's plenty of space for the whole family. The home boasts four generously sized double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes, plus a study. Two bathrooms and three toilets provide ample convenience, while the large laundry includes a staircase leading to a rumpus room and a fifth bedroom. With its own access, this area is perfect for teenagers or guests and is situated above the double carport and spacious workshop.

Close to the house, you'll find a well-fenced inground pool, citrus trees, raised vegetable gardens, and a large lawn area for children or pets to enjoy. For the "boy's toys," there's over 300sqm of shedding and yards - ideal for a trade business or extra storage. Currently set up with two horse paddocks and covered yards, this property offers endless possibilities. The remaining approximately four hectares of cropping land provides even more options for future use.

Conveniently located just off the expressway, this rural lifestyle property offers easy access to Napier, Hastings, and Havelock North. LIM and Building Report available on request.
