Set in a peaceful rural location on Hope Road, approximately 15 minutes from Porangahau and 45 minutes from Waipukurau, this recently subdivided lifestyle property offers an affordable entry into country living for those willing to roll up their sleeves and reap the rewards.
Positioned on 1.2760ha, there’s plenty of room to graze a few sheep, with the Mangaorapa Stream forming a natural boundary and a small dam providing stock water. If you’ve been dreaming of space but thought it was out of reach closer to town, this could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
The substantial home spans approximately 350sqm and is packed with character and potential. At its heart is a generous open-plan kitchen and dining area with a woodburner on wetback, complemented by a separate formal dining room and lounge, also heated by a woodburner with wetback feeding radiators through the home. The kitchen includes a pantry and small office nook, while accommodation is well catered for with four large bedrooms plus a smaller fifth bedroom at the front. Two bathrooms, positioned at either end of the home, add practicality for family living.
Native timbers including Rimu and Matai feature throughout, along with charming bay windows and predominantly wooden joinery. Multiple decked areas wrap around the home, offering spots to relax and take in views over the lawns, swimming pool and tennis court.
Additional features include a separate laundry with toilet and shower, a large four-bay shed (one bay with roller doors front and back), and roof water collection from the shed supplying the home.
Yes, the property has been unoccupied for some time and does require some renovation – but for buyers with vision, this is a chance to secure a large family home and lifestyle block at a price point that’s becoming increasingly hard to find.
Located just 15 minutes from Te Paerahi Beach and the local Country Club (offering a bar, restaurant, golf, bowls and tennis), with a school bus route along Mangaorapa Road, the setting balances rural seclusion with community convenience.
Deadline for offers: 4pm Thursday 7 May (unless sold prior)
