Set across approximately 83.33 hectares in a sought-after rural location, 559 Maraetotara Road offers a well-balanced mix of productive land, comfortable family living and practical farm infrastructure, all within easy reach of Havelock North, Hastings and Napier.
The spacious five-bedroom home, built in 2003, has been designed with family living in mind. At its heart is a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, complemented by an office nook, home gym space and excellent storage. The master suite includes an ensuite and adjoining sunroom, while four additional bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate toilet are located in their own wing of the home. This layout also creates flexibility for extended family and guests.
Outdoor living is well catered for with a large covered northeast-facing deck and a second covered deck to the west. A double garage with built-in workbench and laundry, carport and covered access to the home add further everyday practicality.
Heating is provided by a large wood fire with wetback, supported by a heat pump, HRV and heat-transfer systems.
The elevated Maraetotara hill area is highly regarded for its country and typically benefits from higher rainfall. Its coastal hill setting supports reliable pasture growth and contributes to the spring-fed water resources found throughout the area.
The property is well set up for those looking to run a manageable farming operation. Established laneways assist with stock movement, while farm tracks provide reliable access throughout the property. Infrastructure includes main cattle yards beside a three-bay hay and implement shed, a second set of yards further back on the farm, and multiple workshop and storage sheds, including a modern double-bay shed with lockable roller doors.
The land has traditionally been used for breeding cattle and Wiltshire sheep, offering buyers the opportunity to continue with an established farming system or adapt the property to suit their own requirements. Farm water is largely spring-fed, while fencing comprises a mix of conventional and electric fencing across the property.
With its combination of scale, infrastructure and comfortable family living, 559 Maraetotara Road presents an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking a productive rural property that remains practical to operate, while still enjoying convenient access to Hawke’s Bay’s main centres.
