148 Te Kapua Rise, Puketapu, Hastings

Every home tells a story they say, and with 2569 Puketitiri the story is rich, long and worth listening to! A four bedroom marvel, this 1903 villa was originally built on the Napier Hill by RHJ Hamlin where it remained for the next 92 years before being separated by hand to retain its integrity and ensure a seamless reassembly. It was moved to its current site in 1995 where the current owners have spent the last 30 years crafting the story this home tells today. They have touched every part and reinstated it with the intention of creating a beautiful, cosy, warm and functional villa that was in keeping with its original build. Native timbers of Kauri, Matai and Rimu have been preserved and re-conditioned, holidays were spent sourcing original coloured and patterned glass for the windows and doors and every detail completed to match the original. Large bedrooms are typical of a home of this era and an open lounge, kitchen and dining area keeps the family together. The home is surrounded by stunning gardens, a pool, great shedding and ample paddocks to run stock. The story here is profound, so don't miss your opportunity to experience it and be a part of its future.
