Set privately amongst just over 6,000sqm of established grounds, this truly unique lifestyle property offers an exceptional blend of space, functionality, rural charm, and country freedom, all just minutes from the vibrant Havelock North village.
Lovingly owned for more than 30 years by a now-retired blacksmith, the property has been thoughtfully developed with horses and rural living at its heart, creating a special setting for equestrian enthusiasts, hobby farmers, or families wanting room to spread out and enjoy the lifestyle dream without sacrificing convenience.
Surrounded by established gardens, mature shelterbelts, and filled with authentic country character, the property has a warm and welcoming feel from the moment you arrive. Rustic touches, wagon wheels, and horse-inspired features throughout the grounds add personality and soul, giving the property a timeless charm that feels genuinely connected to its history.
The land is exceptionally well set up for horses or stock, featuring two large paddocks, additional smaller grooming and grazing paddocks, along with a horse shelter stable, offering flexibility for grazing, training, grooming, or separating animals. Whether you are a passionate horse lover, need space for a few animals, or simply want the freedom of lifestyle living with room for children and pets to roam, this property delivers in every sense.
The home itself offers comfortable and practical family living with three bedrooms plus a study, a separate lounge, and an open-plan kitchen and dining area designed for everyday living. There is also a separate toilet, separate laundry, and a large storage room. At the rear of the home, a covered deck creates the perfect place for morning coffees in the sun while overlooking the paddocks and watching the horses start their day. Positioned to embrace the peaceful surroundings, the home feels private, relaxed, and deeply connected to the land around it.
Adding further appeal is the impressive approximately 80 sqm three-bay shed, perfectly suited for car enthusiasts, tradies, contractors, or anyone needing serious space for machinery, boats, horse floats, or workshop use. Additional outbuildings including a silo shed, pump shed, and garden shed.
The property also benefits from its own well water supply and septic system, adding to the self-sufficient and functional nature of this exceptional lifestyle offering.
Lifestyle properties offering this level of equestrian infrastructure, shedding, character, and privacy, while still being within easy reach of Havelock North, are incredibly rare and seldom come to market.
Lovingly held and carefully developed over decades, this is a property filled with memories, passion, and purpose. A reluctant sale due to downsizing now presents a rare opportunity for the next owner to embrace the lifestyle, space, and character that has made this such a treasured home for so many years.
A property with soul, space, and endless possibilities.
Deadline sale closes 2:00pm Wednesday 17 June 2026 at Harcourts, 207 Gloucester Street, Taradale (unless sold prior).
