If your family has outgrown your current home, then have we got a property for you! Big on size, generous on space and with a rural outlook that's pretty hard to beat, this substantial four-bedroom plus office home on the cusp of Otane village has your family written all over it. And when we say space, we mean it! The large open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the heart of the home, with plenty of room for everyone to come together, while a second separate living room gives you somewhere to retreat. Then there's the third lounge upstairs, the ultimate kids' headquarters, gaming zone or teenage hideaway. Three living spaces, three different places to spread out. Four double bedrooms offer room for all, including the master with a walk-in wardrobe, while a dedicated office means you won't have to sacrifice a bedroom to work from home. There's a well-appointed family bathroom downstairs, a second bathroom upstairs and even a third toilet tucked into the separate laundry, so the morning bathroom queue might finally become a thing of the past! Presented in great condition throughout, this is a home that's ready to get on with the business of family living. A freestanding woodburner and heat pump keep things cosy in winter, while outside in summer, a great deck provides the perfect spot to kick back, fire up the BBQ and take in those stunning views across the neighbouring farmland. And if you thought the house was generous, wait until you see the garaging! A triple-sized garage with double-door access offers room for the vehicles, bikes, tools and all the other bits and pieces that seem to multiply with family life. Add a woodshed and handy under-stair storage, and there's a place for just about everything. Positioned on the edge of Otane village, you've got that lovely rural outlook with all village amenities just an easy stroll away. Big family? Extended family? Bring the lot - there's room for all!

From the street, this property gives away absolutely nothing about what lies behind its walls. Step inside and prepare to have your expectations completely rearranged. Somewhat reminiscent of loft-style apartment living, this is a space that doesn't follow the normal rulebook. Big, bold and undeniably funky, yet with a certain warmth and cosiness that makes it feel like home. Vast in scale yet very inviting, the interior centres around an impressive open-plan living space designed for entertaining, relaxing and living a little differently. The kitchen is a showstopper - seriously stylish with designer finishes, a generous island bench with raised bar seating, and an out-the-gate integrated beverage station, equally suited to morning coffees or evening cocktails. From there, the space flows through defined dining and living zones, with a freestanding wood burner adding warmth and atmosphere. Downstairs, the bathroom and integrated laundry have been crafted by a tiler with an exceptional eye for detail and the skills to match - this is a space that could easily be considered a work of art in its own right. Upstairs, a second bathroom services two further double bedrooms. Set on a supersized 1,215m2 section in the relaxed rural township of Otane, you'll be part of a village well known for its laid-back lifestyle and thriving arts and sporting community, while still being within an easy commute of both Waipukurau and Hastings. A seriously cool home. A creative studio. A work-from-home setup. Somewhere to live your best life. Whatever you see, this is an inspiring and versatile space with the potential to be so much more. Go on. Appease your curiosity. Come and check out what lies behind!

Did you just say four bedrooms and two bathrooms? That's right! Eliminate the arguments - the kids can finally have a bedroom each! When it comes to family-friendly, budget-conscious buying, this neat and tidy property gets a big thumbs up. Situated in one of Central Hawke's Bay's most popular small towns and recently relocated to its easy-care 802m2 site, a major refurbishment of the house has been completed so much of the hard work has already been done including new roof, new piles, two refreshed bathrooms, new external electric hot water system, rewired, new woolen carpet and fresh paintwork inside and out, leaving you all the fun of adding your own personal touches. Super sunny with a practical layout, the open plan kitchen, dining and living area opens out to a large north-facing entertainer's deck, the perfect place to relax in the sun while overlooking the lightly landscaped, low-maintenance grounds. There's also ample room to add your own garage should you wish. Inside offers plenty of space for big, busy families with four bedrooms, all with wardrobes, and two bathrooms - the main with shower, vanity, toilet and combined laundry facilities, and the second with shower, vanity and toilet. Privately positioned down a sealed rear driveway, it's an easy walk to the local primary school, art and craft centre, dairy, pub, cafe, markets, and sports and recreation grounds, while Hastings is just an easy 30-minute commute. Affordable, spacious and move-in ready, this is a fantastic, family ready walk-in entry into the Otane dream!
