Tucked away on 1.4ha (approx.) of private, elevated land just five minutes from Taradale, this beautifully restored villa captures the very best of Hawke’s Bay living. From wrap-around verandahs to sweeping vistas stretching from Te Mata Peak to Cape Kidnappers, it’s a setting that feels both peaceful and impressive. Inside, the home delivers space and soul in equal measure. Five bedrooms include a generous master with ensuite and walk-in robe, while two separate living areas – each with a wood fire – create warm, welcoming spaces to gather. The country-style kitchen connects effortlessly to the dining area and out to the verandah, making everyday living and entertaining a breeze. High ceilings, sash windows, leadlight details and rich timber floors showcase the timeless character that makes villas so special. Outdoors, the lifestyle truly shines. A sun-soaked in-ground pool promises long afternoons well into autumn, while paddocks, raised veggie beds and an established orchard – from avocados to bananas – bring the good life home. There’s room for kids to roam, animals to graze, and projects to grow. A triple garage and excellent storage complete the package. With space to breathe and room to grow, this is lifestyle living ready to be enjoyed year-round. Call our team to arrange your private viewing or join us at the next open home.
