On the market for the very first time, this much-loved 1930s rural homestead is a rare and special offering. Home to the same family for three generations, it now presents a unique opportunity to secure a piece of Mangaorapa’s history and create your own country lifestyle dream.
Set on a spacious 8,752 m², this character-filled five-bedroom, two-bathroom home is brimming with warmth, space, and personality. Located in the heart of the welcoming Mangaorapa community, it offers peaceful rural living just 45 minutes from Waipukurau, and only 20 minutes from both the stunning Porangahau Beach and the Porangahau Country Club—home to a golf course, tennis courts, and a vibrant local dining scene.
The home itself showcases timeless character, with original rimu timber finishes and a sense of heritage felt in every room. The expansive kitchen and dining area, complete with a freestanding fireplace, serves as the heart of the home—perfect for family meals, entertaining, or cosy evenings in. Two generous living spaces filled with natural light provide room to relax and unwind, while a large log burner ensures warmth and comfort during the cooler months.
All five bedrooms offer flexibility for growing families, guests, or remote work setups, and the two bathrooms support comfortable everyday living. The home has been lovingly maintained and is ready for its next chapter.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The land is fully fenced making it ideal for lifestyle animals, hobby farming, or simply enjoying the wide open space. Additional features include a large standalone garage, multiple garden sheds, and the original shearers’ quarters that add a touch of rural charm and history. Water supply is taken care of with two brand-new 25,000-litre tanks, complete with a full filtration system for year-round reliability.
This is more than just a property—it’s a lifestyle. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a place to raise a family, or the opportunity to start a small-scale farming venture, this Mangaorapa gem offers space, history, and the beauty of nature all in one.
Don’t miss this rare chance to own a slice of rural paradise with coastal convenience and community charm.
