In mostly original condition with lovely details throughout, you can easily live here and take your time to get a feel for what level of renovation you would like to take on.

The spaces are so generous throughout. The bathroom has had a complete renovation and this has created a lovely modern space with a glimpse to what this home could look like. There is a large master bedroom and two other bedrooms which both connect to a sunny sunroom which provides versatility to how you could use this space. Through the back door is a great storage area, laundry room and access to the garden leading out to the back section and garage where there is garage space and a workshop area.

Following the near sell out of Stage 1 with only three of the original 15 lots remaining via the original developer - the anticipated release of the final stage of the exclusive Mt Herbert Park development is nearly here! Consent has been granted for a further 23 lifestyle sized sections upon the 27.95 hectares of premium bareland currently sitting in two titles (22.39ha and 5.56ha). Due to a change in company ownership, the current owners are ready to hand the reins and potential gains over to a seasoned developer to see the completion of the subdivision through. Mt Herbert Park is a popular development offering lifestyle living with most sites offering sensational hilltop views looking down the Tukituki River reserve to farmland, town and mountains beyond. Waipukurau township is within easy reach offering convenience to its nearby boutique shops, commercial businesses, cafes, schools, sporting and community facilities. World class trout fishing in the Tukituki River Reserve below awaits and access to the network of interconnecting cycle pathways and renowned Gumtree Mountain bike park run past the development offering a unique, geographically beautiful lifestyle with added recreational enjoyment. There's no doubt that with the predicted long-term growth for the area, demand for quality lifestyle sized bareland with such convenience will be high!

First impressions count and this iconic Waipukurau residence does not disappoint. Designed by renowned, award-winning architect John Scott in the mid fifties, this magnificent property is true to form of any of his masterpieces. On arrival you are drawn into the grand central foyer, where a sweeping circular staircase takes you on an architectural journey sprawling across two levels. The property has been designed as two homes in one, offering a fully self-contained one bedroom "annex" linked to the main house via the substantial integral garaging complete with wine cellar. Think multi-generational living for a dependant family member, semi-independent young adult, or potential Airbnb income stream. Upstairs the elegantly styled formal and family living and dining spaces cohesively flow together while large cedar windows and doors blur the boundaries between inside and out providing easy access to the private sanctuary of the beautifully landscaped and professionally maintained gardens on the enviable 1,250m2 site. Gather here on the courtyard in the north facing sun and soak up the atmosphere of the sweet-smelling perfection that surrounds you. Two generous bedrooms are also positioned to the upper level, with a truly luxurious "master suite" comprising of spacious bedroom with Juliet style balconies, dressing room, ensuite with spa bath and magnificent views west over town toward the Ruahine ranges. From its highly desirable and sought after hill top location, it's an easy stroll through the nearby reserve to the shops and eateries in town. A home of such remarkable presence, you can't help but be enthralled by all that is on offer.
