Set on 7,954 sqm (more or less) on the peaceful outskirts of Clive, this lifestyle property offers space, privacy, and remarkable versatility. Perfectly positioned between Napier, Hastings, and Havelock North, it combines rural tranquillity with easy access to the wider Hawke’s Bay. Beautifully landscaped grounds, sweeping lawns, and established plantings frame the homes, creating a sense of calm from the moment you arrive - a setting that feels both expansive and welcoming. Bore water ensures the gardens and grounds are easily maintained, while a large 3-bay garage provides ample space for vehicles, machinery, or hobbies.
The heart of the main home is a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area, thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. With plenty of bench space, a large island, and ample storage, it seamlessly connects to the front deck through bi-folding doors, bringing the outdoors in. An enclosed sunroom with polished concrete floors further extends the living space, flowing to decking on both sides, perfect for relaxed entertaining in any season. The home also features two generous bedrooms, with the primary suite offering a quality ensuite, while the second bedroom is serviced by a well-appointed tiled bathroom, combining comfort and functionality throughout.
A separate lounge sits just off the kitchen and dining zone, offering a cosy retreat with a woodburner and its own deck access. A few steps up, a flexible office provides an ideal work-from-home space or could easily serve as a third bedroom if required. The home’s layout strikes a balance between openness and defined spaces, making it practical for families, couples, or those seeking a peaceful retreat with room to host.
Adjacent to the main dwelling is ‘Kowhai Villa’, a charming two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence with its own kitchenette and open-plan living area. Decks on both sides capture the sun throughout the day, while a cedar hot tub provides the perfect spot to unwind. Kowhai Villa is ideal for extended family, guests, or Airbnb income, and its separation from the main home ensures privacy for all.
Completing the offering is ‘The Loft’, a versatile outbuilding designed with quality and functionality in mind. Equipped with its own kitchenette, open-plan dining and living area, beautiful bathroom, and laundry, it has been successfully run as Airbnb accommodation but would also make an exceptional studio, office, or creative workspace. The separate bathhouse attached to The Loft creates day spa potential, while views stretching to Te Mata Peak provide a stunning backdrop.
The property offers a combination of heating, from a wood burner to heat pumps - ensuring everyone stays comfortable no matter the season. Gas infinity hot water systems provide both convenience and efficiency.
This is a rare opportunity, blending multiple buildings, income potential, and beautifully curated grounds into one compelling package. With options for extended family living, guest accommodation, boutique short-stay rental opportunities - as the current vendor has done, or even hiring the grounds for functions, this property offers flexibility, comfort, and an enviable Hawke’s Bay lifestyle.
