33 Mill Street, Ongaonga, Central Hawkes Bay

Clever design, beautiful finishes and an incredible connection to the outdoors create a stunning fusion of life and style at this 2020-built cedar-clad home. The striking exterior makes a refreshing change from the norm and at just 121m2, it's a masterclass in making every square metre count with spacious living spaces and three generous bedrooms! You'll immediately appreciate the attention to detail, with stunning engineered oak flooring mixed with plush carpet, ply ceilings with crisp negative detailing through the central living space, V-groove walls and extra-height aluminium joinery creating a home that's both designer and homely. The northerly aspect floods the interior with natural light, while beautifully framing the surrounding rural outlook. The well appointed kitchen, complete with induction hob, takes centre stage in the open-plan living area, where a cleverly positioned partition wall provides definition between spaces without compromising the sense of openness. A fabulous window seat overlooking the farmland and orchard to the rear adds a relaxed, homely touch, along with a Bosca free standing wood burner while large doors open to the north-facing entertainer's deck. Outside, the 5,371m2 (1.32 acre) grounds are equally appealing. Set well back from the road, with a paddock to the front for the pets and established native plantings attracting birdlife, there's a real sense of space and privacy. Two 25,000-litre rainwater tanks and an eco-friendly Biolytix septic system. Enjoy the best of semi-rural living, just minutes from the shops, local school and everyday amenities, while Hastings is an easy 35-minute commute. A stunning take on lifestyle living!
