Relocated in 2023 and beautifully positioned for all day sun whilst capturing stunning views of the Mountain when the sun is out, this 1950’s home on a little over an acre of land has undergone a thoughtful transformation, now ready for its new owners.
Situated on just over an acre of land, you’ll love how natural light fills the home so effortlessly. Morning sun filters through the window-lined hallway into the 3 bedrooms on the left wing, to the living areas on the right where abundant afternoon light warms the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space. The hardwood deck crafted from Fijian mahogany off the kitchen, invites you to relax in the sun, entertain friends, or simply take in the incredible, uninterrupted view of Mount Taranaki - perfect for busy family life and entertaining. A separate formal lounge offers flexibility of two living areas, or as it’s currently set up, the option for a fourth bedroom.
Comfort has been carefully considered. An HRV system, updated underfloor and wall insulation and a brand-new fireplace added in 2023 keep the home cosy year-round. The bathroom provides a jet bath for soaking and a shower for everyday ease, and the separate laundry is conveniently located near the back entrance. Character details, like built-in shelving in the bedrooms, add a sense of personality and warmth.
Big investments have been made here: completely re-clad and re-piled, a new septic system, new drainage, all new electrical works, and a continuous-flow hot water system. Two 25,000-litre water tanks provide excellent supply, a large three-bay shed – with two roller doors and one open bay – ensures you have room for vehicles, machinery, storage, or hobbies.
Outside, the property will come to life. Thoughtfully surrounded by over 300 native plants for future privacy and shelter. For families, a large playground complete with sandpits is concreted in and ready to be enjoyed.
Okato presents the best of village life, while still allowing easy access to New Plymouth and all the city has to offer. Coastal Taranaki School for years 1 through 13 and Stepping Stones Day Care and a Play Centre are also within easy reach. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy tennis, squash courts, and a seasonal swimming pool, while nature lovers can explore the picturesque river walk, with easy access to our famous Surf Highway.
This wonderful family home is more than just a place to live – it’s a lifestyle, and it’s ready for you to call your own. Arrange your viewing today - let’s chat.
