Overview

Former Policeman's Home, Ophir

If it's a trip down memory lane every time you step foot on your property that you're after, then the former Blacks policeman's home should give you that nostalgic feeling. Originally constructed with schist stone near the turn of the 20th century, this property is home to one of Ophir's most special buildings and it's on the market for the first time in more than 30 years. Located inside Ophir's heritage precinct, the home sits on over half an acre and has had many add-ons, remodels and redecoration across the years. The living space, dining room and kitchen are all separate, the dining room still lovingly hanging on to an immaculate Shacklock coal range. Along with the coal range, in the two bedrooms you'll find open fireplaces that can no longer be used, but add even more to the character of the home. A separate office/lounge room as well as conservatory off the living and dining adds extra space and brings the outdoors inside. Heated by a Yunca wood fire, the home is warm in the iconic Ophir winters. A really tidy separate garage, of the same era, with lean-to (no code compliance), provides good storage. The section is large and elevated. Walk up to the top and sit on the wooden pew and you get a phenomenal view over Ophir and the surrounding Manuherikia Valley. Once you've taken in the view, toddle down the driveway or jump the fence and have a meal at the famous Pitches Store or a beer further down Swindon Street at Blacks Hotel. This would make an epic holiday home, permanent downsizer or just a wonderful addition to your property portfolio. The is a rare opportunity to secure a piece of Central Otago history. Call Rhys or Renee today for more information and to book your view. *Auction on 30 October 2026 at 11am, Raine & Horne office, 3 Wilson Street, Omakau. Prior offers considered.
