Tucked away on the banks of the Rangitaiki River, 19 Hydro Road is a much-loved 1920s character home and one of the first ever built on this iconic street. Rich in charm and thoughtfully updated, this four-bedroom weatherboard home blends timeless appeal with modern comfort.

Set on a generous section, this beautifully presented home features standout period details and light-filled interiors across 130sqm of space. The formal lounge impresses with hardwood floors, a working fireplace, timber mantel, panelled ceilings, and a heat pump — making it a warm and elegant space year-round.

The updated kitchen is filled with charm and functionality, offering Early Settler cupboards, engineered stone countertops, gas stove with electric oven, and a generous butler’s pantry.

The large family bathroom has been thoughtfully refreshed with a new floor and includes a clawfoot bath, walk-in tiled shower, timber vanity, and separate toilet.

All four bedrooms are inviting, with the master showcasing dramatic wallpaper, a chandelier, and panelled ceiling. The fourth bedroom enjoys peaceful garden views, while the third features new carpet laid over new floorboards.

In addition to the home’s many features, the (more or less) 1378-square-metre property boasts a delightful selection of 17 different fruit trees, providing plenty of space for outdoor enjoyment and a taste of nature’s bounty.

Additional features and upgrades include:

• Building Report: Available upon request

• Fully rewired

• Insulated walls, floors, and ceiling (Insulmax)

• Soak holes installed for drainage

• Gas califont for continuous hot water

• Roof re-screwed for peace of mind

With a separate garage and the opportunity to add value, this riverside gem is a rare find.
