Exceptional property. Exceptional opportunity.
Tucked away down a long driveway on a sprawling 1,685m2 (approx.) section, this substantial 283m2 (approx.) home represents an opportunity that is becoming increasingly difficult to find - especially at this price. With an RV of $940,000 and a heavily reduced asking price of just $830,000+, our highly motivated vendor is ready to see this property sold. For buyers who recognise the value in securing an exceptional home and location, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for. A first impression to remember, the Japanese-inspired sliding entrance doors and fresh, welcoming landscaping create an elegant sense of arrival, hinting at the peaceful sanctuary beyond. Inside, the home is spacious and versatile, with four generous bedrooms on the main level. The master is a true retreat - oversized and luxurious, featuring an ensuite (with a bonus), walk-in wardrobe and additional built-in storage. A newly renovated main bathroom adds contemporary comfort, while two separate living areas, a bar, and a large kitchen and dining space provide plenty of room for family living and entertaining. But what truly sets this property apart is the breathtaking outlook across a tranquil private pond framed by mature trees. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening drink on the tiled balcony, taking in the serenity - or wander down to feed the ducks via your own private access. Downstairs you will find a large double garage, workshop and storage room - ideal for hobbies, projects or simply accommodating the demands of a growing family. Built in 1972 from a combination of concrete block, brick and weatherboard, this substantial home has the bones, scale and setting to reward those with a vision. There is scope to modernise and add your own touches over time, creating a truly exceptional residence without compromising the qualities that money can't easily buy - the land, privacy, outlook and prestigious location. And that is the real opportunity here: in a property and location of this calibre, you can continue to invest and enhance over time, with the potential to create something truly remarkable. Zoned for all the top schools and surrounded by quality homes, this is a rare combination of land, lifestyle, location and potential.

Quality modern construction, fantastic family spaces and a location that ticks all the boxes - this is a home that deserves your attention. Built in 2011 by the previous owners, this impressive 274m2 (more or less) home offers the space and flexibility that modern families are looking for. The substantial two-level layout provides excellent flow, with a huge open-plan living area connecting effortlessly to the outdoors, plus a separate lounge for a little peace and quiet. Heat pumps and a wood-burner provide year-round comfort, while large (double-glazed) windows and multiple skylights ensure the home is beautifully light and inviting. The brick exterior with plaster finish and low-maintenance design add to the appeal, while generous off-street parking provides plenty of room for the family, boat or trailer. And then there's the location. Right in sought-after Hokowhitu and close to both the Hokowhitu Village and the Ascot Street shops, you're also within the sought-after school zones for Winchester Primary, Hokowhitu Primary, Palmerston North Intermediate Normal, Palmerston North Boys' High and Palmerston North Girls' High. With school zoning becoming increasingly important for families, this is a significant advantage. Our vendors have loved calling this home for the past five years, but new opportunities mean that this must be sold. This is a rare opportunity so make sure you view this one.

Some homes are simply special - and this architecturally designed 2007 residence is certainly one of them. Stylish, light-filled and effortlessly individual, it offers a clever combination of spaces that will particularly appeal to professional couples, smaller families or those looking for an easy-care home with flexible living and plenty of personality. The distinctive plaster exterior is complemented by a cavity-backed system, a well-maintained butynol roof, double glazed window joinery and a balcony above the garage - all contributing to the home's considered architectural design. Inside, the layout is practical without ever feeling ordinary. Open-plan living creates a welcoming central hub, while three bedrooms and two bathrooms are positioned downstairs. Above the double internal-access garage is a bonus fourth room with its own ensuite - an incredibly versatile space that could suit extended family, guests, a home office or perhaps a boarder. At 176m2 (more or less) including the garage, this makes excellent use of every square metre. Outside, this property continues to excel. The compact, fully fenced section has been thoughtfully designed around a series of private courtyards and tranquil, zen-like gardens. Capture the morning sun with your coffee, then follow it around to enjoy the afternoon warmth while entertaining or simply relaxing in complete privacy. And then there's the location. Park Road places you right in the heart of sought-after Hokowhitu, arguably Palmerston North's most popular residential suburb, with excellent amenities close by and access to all the top school zones. This property must be sold. Offered by Deadline Sale, with no price guide - because this is a home that is simply too unique to value by comparison alone. Come and experience it for yourself, consider what it offers you, and decide what it is worth to you. If you've been searching for something genuinely different in Hokowhitu, this could be the one you've been waiting for. Deadline 2pm, 7th October.
