Set on over an acre (4,679m²) just minutes from Waipukurau, this spacious 1912 bungalow offers an appealing lifestyle opportunity with plenty of space, character and flexibility. With the current tenant soon to vacate, the property will be vacant and move-in ready in just a few weeks, making it ideal for buyers wanting to settle in and enjoy the property straight away.
Inside, the home features three good-sized bedrooms along with an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. Comfort is well covered with two heat pumps plus a wood burner on wetback, helping keep the home cosy through the cooler months. French doors open onto a covered terrace, creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection and a great spot to relax or entertain.
Outdoors is where this property really comes into its own. Established cottage gardens are complemented by an abundance of fruit trees and produce, including peaches, grapes, raspberries, feijoas, lemons, rhubarb and loquats. Four fenced paddocks provide plenty of flexibility for a few animals, while the pond, aviary, chicken coop, workshop area, woodshed and large carport add to the practical lifestyle appeal.
There is also potential for a second dwelling or granny flat, subject to council approval, providing options for extended family, guests or future income. Town water supply combined with a septic tank system adds further practicality.
Located close to the river and bridle trails, the property offers the freedom of semi-rural living while remaining only minutes from Waipukurau township. The nearby Ruahine Ranges provide plenty of opportunities for tramping, hunting and weekend adventures.
Waipukurau offers excellent schooling options, recreational facilities and everyday amenities, with an easy commute to the wider Hawke’s Bay region.
Vacant possession is coming soon, so whether you're looking for your own lifestyle property, room for the family and animals, or a property with future potential, this one is well worth a look.
