For those drawn to off-grid living, this unique property offers a rare chance to create something truly special. Set on 2.16 acres in an elevated position near the mouth of the Waihua River, and approximately 20 km south of Wairoa township, this is a property for visionaries.
Nestled among trees, with a Nikau palm standing guard, the house is in very original condition. Built to last with concrete perimeter foundations and heart native timber, it will respond well to some thoughtful modernisation. There is a vintage enamel range which wet backs to the old copper cylinder plus a separate enclosed fire box. With the power disconnected, the stove has a gas bottle connection, but it would ideally suit an off grid solar upgrade.
A second building is located by the dwelling – this could be an art studio, with some repair and maintenance. A third derelict building is situated away from the dwelling, which could be cleared for an additional home.
The land is peppered with trees & shrubs from its past life and retains a sense of quiet tranquillity and harbours an abundance of bird life.
