Offering the perfect blend of country freedom and smart versatility, this Hakaru property is tailor-made for lifestylers and savvy buyers alike. Set on a 3,911 sqm site, it brings together comfortable living, substantial garaging, and a practical home-and-income setup in a peaceful country setting.

A key feature is its versatility. The 100 sqm barn, newly built on-site in 2023 is set up so effectively that the current owner lives there while renting out the main house. Alongside twin roller doors and high exposed timber trusses, it includes a consented bathroom with a glass shower, plus a studio bedroom with a kitchenette and sliding doors opening to the lawn. This offers clear options: live in the barn for rental income, use it for extended family, or keep it as a dedicated workshop and guest space.

The primary residence is a 1980s build which was relocated to the property in 2021, with a full Code Compliance Certificate, featuring durable HardiePlank cladding and a year-young Colorsteel roof. Inside, the living spaces have a relaxed, lived-in feel. The lounge is brightened by broad windows and opens to a timber deck, while a heat pump ensures year-round comfort. Next door, the kitchen and dining area features varnished timber flooring, natural light, and a straightforward layout.

Four spacious bedrooms provide neutral interiors and rural outlooks. A clean family bathroom features a shower, bath, and vanity, complemented by a separate toilet and dedicated laundry room, making it highly practical for you or your tenants.

Hakaru keeps you connected without giving up the country feel. Hakaru Pony Club is on Settlement Road, Kaiwaka School is around 7 km away and both Kaiwaka and Mangawhai are within easy reach for groceries, cafés and services. Mangawhai Village, New World and the coastline are also an easy drive when the weekend mood strikes. If more room and a slower rhythm have been on your list, get in touch with Megan Hetges and come see how this one fits.
