4197 State Highway 50, Maraekakaho

Located in the highly desirable lifestyle area of Maraekakaho and within 20 minutes of Hastings CBD this property offers an extensively renovated 1950s home. A variety of ancillary outbuildings offer plenty of potential on an interestingly contoured 2.24 ha property with a mix of flat paddocks and an attractively planted gully. The home exudes a warm country feel and is generously proportioned throughout. The new open-plan kitchen/dining opens to decking that leads to a funky outdoor dining area that includes inbuilt seating and would be the perfect spot for a pizza oven. The large sun-filled living room opens to a covered verandah that acts as an outdoor living room set up for entertaining. Featuring a projector and screen, an inbuilt BBQ, heating, built-in seating and blinds movie nights at home will be a big hit. Offering three large bedrooms the master with a gorgeous en-suite, walk-in wardrobe and doors that opens to a west-facing deck is complemented by two queen sized bedrooms that share the renovated country style family bathroom. A large shed with three phase power sits away from the house and includes a workshop offering options for the new owner. Other buildings and amenities include an outdoor office with power and an inbuilt desk, a self-contained "tiny house" bus, and the classic lifestyle requirements of a chook house and a pig pen. A home orchard leads to a meandering walk through the trees and over the gully to the two roadside paddocks. Maraekakaho has a well-regarded school and Gumboots early childhood centre, multiple wineries/breweries on the doorstep and plenty of recreation opportunities and is within an easy drive of all Hawke's Bay cites.
